Spoonflower blossoms with more textile-printing capacity

kornitallegroSpoonflower, which prints on-demand graphics and patterns on fabric banners, curtains and other textiles for web-to-print customers around the world, recently purchased its fourth Kornit Digital Allegro industrial digital printing system.

The company took delivery of its first Allegro machine in fall 2013 and has continued to expand its production runs since then. The new 1.8-m (5.9-ft) wide textile printer features in-line pre-treatment technology, uses pigment-based inks and can handle both natural and man-made fabric fibres and blends.

“With the Allegro, the manufacturing process happens in one step,” says Gart Davis, one of Spoonflower’s founding partners. “This allows us to deliver our e-commerce custom printing experience in a timeframe similar to a vendor pulling a traditionally printed fabric from a warehouse. Our Allegros are running three shifts, seven days a week.”
