K&L Wall Art, which produces home accessories at its 1,500m2 facility in Berlin –exclusively using digital technology – added Xeikon’s wallpaper system, the Wall Decoration Suite, to its production portfolio. This included a Xeikon 8500 single-pass digital duplex printer.
“We needed to act since we were no longer able to meet the demand for digitally printed wallpaper with our previous latex printers whilst remaining competitive,” said Alexander Kunze, managing director at K&L Wall Art.
The decision to purchase the Xeikon solution was driven primarily by K&L Wall Art’s expansion beyond personalized wallpaper for consumers to include a B2B customer base.
Kunze calculated that he is able to print five times faster with the new Xeikon machine than with two or three latex printers.
All configurations of Xeikon’s Wall Decoration Suite include a jumbo unwinder and a specially developed wallpaper rewinder with cutter and remover. This enables the production of a fully finished wallpaper roll in a single operation.
“What really impressed us about the Xeikon wallpaper solution is that it has been thoroughly thought out, from A to Z. We do not require any additional machines for assembly, and a single operator can easily operate the machine,” Kunze said.
