Jet Technologies and Polly Automatics have teamed up to launch the JetIQ range in Australia.
“The JetIQ range is a cooperation between Jet Technologies and Polly Automatics where we are both bringing our IP and skillset to the table,” Jack Malki, director of Jet Technologies told ProPack.Pro.
“At present, Jet Technologies has been able to provide digital print solutions without being able to close the loop with suitable finishing solutions. Therefore, immediately in the digital print space, we can control the solution from end to end,” he said.
“Our range of finishing equipment is extensive, so we will now have a wide range of options from slitting/rewinding/inspection, to shrink sleeve processing equipment and of course digital finishing.”
According to Malki, one of the key features is the Printbar digital embellishment that is an option on the JetIQ finishing equipment.
“We spent over two years researching and testing the best options, specifically for the uncoated papers that we see in the ANZ wine sector,” said Malki.
“The outcome was a partnership with Xaar that delivers what we think is the best performing print bar for digital embellishment.”
All elements of the range will be available in Australia.
“The market has been crying out for a well-supported alternative and the focus is on support around our very large region,” said Malki.
Jet Technologies will be present across a number of partner spaces at drupa later this month, including the Screen Stand where Jet Technologies’ digital print solutions will be on display including a number of new product launches.
“We do have a direct presence booked for Labelexpo SE Asia – in Bangkok next year, so that is exciting as we look to leverage our presence across the region having recently opened in Vietnam, Malaysia, and Singapore in addition to Indonesia where we have been since 2013,” said Malki.
“We are always working on improving our product offering and service to the market. We will be having an open house event in the near future and will invite clients to see this equipment shortly.”
