Turner Hybrid Flatbed Printer
Project Summary:
University Printing Services is significantly reducing campus waste through the acquisition of a new Hybrid Flatbed Printer. Previously, rigid signage required printing on non-recyclable PVC vinyl and mounting it to boards, creating substantial landfill waste. This new equipment allows for direct printing onto substrates, eliminating the vinyl layer and enabling the creation of a “Go Green” line of 100% recyclable, paper-based signage. By insourcing wide-format printing that was previously outsourced, the project also cuts delivery-related carbon emissions and creates new technical employment opportunities for students
