UV-cured tops growth report

UV-curable ink-jet is the top growing sector of the wide-format printing equipment market says market research firm CAP Ventures.

Installations of UV-cured large-format ink-jet printers were set to grow by nearly 60% per year until 2007 according to the firm.

It expects an increase in printers shipped from a few hundred in 2003 to 1,400 in 2007. This rise is spurred by the launch of machines, such as the latest Oc Arizonas and Incas Spyder (PrintWeek, 5 February).
