Good evening

An introduction to myself and why I am here!

My businesses offer industrial external cleaning, to supermarkets & the like, the second business is a shot-blasting service.

We have been working at Charterhouse Holdings, Xpres & Kustom Kit this week and into next week, pressure washing the site and now onto the building cladding.

We were fortunate to have a walk round earlier on in the week but today we were shown what each machine does and how merchandise looks.

I want to print my own giveaway merchandise, for potential clients, leave them various bits to put my details directly in front of them, every day.

So I am here - hello!

Hi Rob and welcome to the forum :-) When you get a minute, please change your Location field so we can see roughly which are you're in.

Xpres have one of if no the best showrooms with some great equipment. you were spoiled looking around there so I hope you have some pretty deep pockets ;-)

At the beginning of the week we were talking about dry ice blasting and dry ice going from solid to gas, as it breaks down and that being sublimation. Within an hour we had our second introduction to sublimation and thought that they had been listening to us.

Is their equipment worth the extra money or is it rebranded from somewhere else because I can probably get a trade price and have the cost taken from the invoice but don't want to pay anymore than I need to?

Adkins presses are one of the better makes, whilst not perfect for all applications, quality wise they're hard to beat. Ricoh printers are excellent if you're looking A4/A3, Graphtec/Roland Cutters both very nice. if you can get trade price I would bite their hand off if I were you. Speak to Matthew if you haven't already :-)

I am speaking to sales on Tuesday. I will ask for Mathew. Thanks for the advice.

Looking at the mug press plus the the inserts, a swing press (I think that's what it is ?) and the Ricoh printer.

Adkins one of the best makes, if you want proper Adkins then stick to the Beta range.
