Belgium-based Agfa-Gevaert Group invested in new UK premises to house both its Radiology Solutions Service Center and a new Inkjet Solutions showroom.
The site is scheduled to open in March 2021.
The new 3,500-square-foot facility is located in Rugby, Warwickshire, and will be dominated by showroom space displaying demonstration models from Agfa’s Inkjet and Radiology Solutions businesses.
The showroom is planned to house the latest wide-format inkjet printers and presses.
“Like many of our customers, we used last year to evaluate how we operate in an ever-changing market," said Bobby Grauf, Inkjet sales manager UK & Ireland. "Inkjet is one of Agfa’s core growth engines and being able to bring more systems closer to our customers is key in achieving our goals. Together with our head office in Belgium and our factory in Canada, the new UK showroom will be an invaluable facility to demonstrate a greater variety of inkjet solutions to a wider audience.”
Agfa-Gevaert Group announced the closure of its printing plate factories in Pont-à-Marcq, France, and Leeds, UK, in June last year. The Leeds site served both as a showroom location for Inkjet, and as a base for Radiology Solutions Service.
