Offering robustness and stability in production, LaForte 100 is designed for those large format printing companies aiming to diversify their product portfolio and to explore new market segments.

Where technological development is central to Aleph’s vision, the company also focuses on the environmental sustainability issue.

Developed in partnership with a specialist ink producer, the new inks are designed to address the requirements of printing on blue-back paper and to offer fastness and colour vibrancy. Featuring high pigment concentration, they allow a reduced use of ink to reach outstanding prints with no colour bleeding.

“We are excited to attend FESPA 2019 as it represents a fantastic opportunity to showcase our cutting-edge technology, which has enabled us to grow internationally – we placed 54 printers in Italy and abroad over the last two years. Our objective is to keep growing in different market segments, in order to establish ourselves as a leading player offering pioneering and environmentally-friendly printing solutions together with outstanding aftersales services,” Manes concludes.

Visitors will be able to check the quality of Aleph technology live at FESPA Global Print Expo: the Como-based company is responsible for the design and the print of the scarves and ties worn by FESPA team during the show.
