THE WALLCOVERINGS INDUSTRY IS SET FOR DISRUPTION - JOHN MARK LTD ARE LEADING THE FIELD
John-Mark Watson
We sat down with John-Mark Watson to learn more about his lifelong passion and love for the wallcoverings industry, manufacturing and its nuances.
The wallcoverings industry is set for disruption. As a sector, creativity is instrumental in its ongoing success, and the balance between the design element, and the materials used is paramount.
When digital inkjet technologies first emerged some twenty years ago the graphics industry was the first marketplace to be disrupted and to digitize production. Closely followed by the wallcoverings industry. Early adopters specialized in graphic, photographic reproductions and the off the shelf customized wallpaper- the wallpaper mural was born.
The next chapter in this evolution is attributed to the knowledge and skill of the digital pioneers. Pioneers with a deep understanding of traditional wallcoverings, the marketplace, its community, and the creative edge that needs to be deployed for commercial success.
This is the story of a new era of digital production for roll-to-roll wallpapers, where creativity flourishes at any volume, to carve a new industry, freed from mass production and where technology is developed in partnership with the print pioneer.
In today’s interview we talk with John-Mark Watson of John Mark Ltd who has utilized HP technology to build an impressive production facility, and a company that nurtures the creative community and the advancement of digital technology.
We sat down with John- Mark Watson to learn more about his lifelong passion and love for the wallcoverings industry, manufacturing and its nuances.
When was John Mark Ltd founded and what machine output did you have back then?
“We started in May 2012. We had one HP LX 600, the second generation of the Latex technology from HP. Soon after that, we then bought a small L26500, as a sampling machine. AVA CAD CAM provided us with our RIP, and our colour management system. But back then in the early days, we couldn’t we get color samples from large machine to print on a small sampling machine and vice versa. It was never close enough - in wallcoverings a close match isn’t a colour match. Finally, and I attribute this progress to the help we received from Jane Rixon at HP, AVA were allowed access into the HP software, and the issues with colour matching and colour continuity were finally resolved.
The following year, May 2013, we then bought a LX 820, and then bought the second LX 820 in November 2013. So, in total, we had 3 large wide width printers and 1 small sample printer. And I must say, in those days, they were very temperamental, they were nothing like what they are today. We were pushing those machines, to the limits, they were really only designed for doing small signage and graphics and we were actually producing hundreds and hundreds of rolls of wallpaper through them right from the very start. I was there in production running 24/7 all on my own. I had one guy doing pre-press and sending the work from the iMacs to the HP printers. I was doing all the delivery notes. I wasn't doing the invoicing, but I was preparing everything else.
I would have thought our total volume in a week would have been producing about 400 rolls of wallpaper. The early days in digital manufacturing, across the board, was difficult work for everyone”.
“The support we received from the HP team has been instrumental in our success. I’d like to credit Jane Rixon of HP and Doug Gilbertson from Paper Graphics for their continued guidance, support and assistance. Over the years we done a lot of business and have become great friends, Doug was best man at my wedding last year”.
Ten years later, John-Mark what is the output volume of John Mark Ltd today?
“We've got seven machines and we're doing generally around about 120, 10m rolls of wallpaper per day on each one. We print six days a week, it’s around about 5000 rolls. We are the world's largest digital printer for wallcoverings. And we use more ink than anybody else in the world. But you’ve got to remember that wallcovering print is full coverage, that's where the ink volume comes through. We now operate using 7 HP Latex 1500 digital printing machines, running dual rolls.” John Mark Ltd
“We also recently purchased a HP Latex 800W and are making marked progress with this new technology. The white ink opens lots of creative applications for coloured grounds and layered print effects. More on that later – watch this space.”
Why have digital technologies has such an impact on the wallcoverings marketplace?
“I think it's just minimal setup - no stock – and print on-demand. Some of the world's biggest brands are now working with us on-demand. Don’t get me wrong, we love stock orders, we always will love the volume. But why have a warehouse full of printed SKU’s when you can get your manufacturer to make it and deliver it direct to your customer?”
“But there's still an awful lot of administration at the moment in every order. And the reason for that is a SKU driven business. And you know, you only want one number to be out on a SKU, and it's all wrong. You have almost got human contact at every level because we're dealing with brands predominantly, who send you a written PO. We check every detail and write it all up, then send back for them to approve. You don't just produce something we are meticulous, and we work hard to excel in our customer service.”
Over the years John Mark Ltd has grown to employ 17 full time staff. The factory manufactures 24/7 running an automated nightshift, thanks to HP software which can alert the remote production team should any errors occur.
John-Mark has built his company by investing in relationships.
He supports and nurtures his employees, customers and suppliers. Spending hours in production – at the heart of the business, this is where he is happiest. The business has quadrupled in just a few short years, the team accept and resolve each and every challenge as they arise with a can-do culture.
John-Mark added “I know what to do and how to build companies, our expansion has been organic, its natural and pragmatic. When we have challenges, we cross those bridges as we come to them and resolve the issues. I love the glory days when you're pressing the button for 1000 rolls. And that's what really gets me out of bed, I just love to see production and to satisfy customers, you know, and having that boost when they send an email back and say, thanks so much for doing such a thing. It's brilliant, you know…that’s when you get a real kick isn’t it?”
“I've worked with these customers for the last 30 years. Quite a few of those designers within those companies have actually moved from one company to another, but they've all followed me from one company to the next. As the owner of the company, I can make friends with my customers, they always look forward to coming up here. You've got to make commercial life pleasant, haven't you? That’s the kind of industry I grew up in, in textiles years ago, where that kind of hospitality was swishing around. There has to be fun.”
John Mark Ltd works closely with their customers to ensure that their designs are replicated perfectly. The studio supports creatives to set-up and agree colour standards before production commences, and these are matched for future runs. Digital production offers the creative a blank canvas for creativity. John-Mark’s team work hard to deliver the designer’s vision. For the brand and the independent designer, costs are greatly reduced compared to the set-up required for new collections using traditional sourcing routes and all of these attributes have in turn revived the industry and democratized creativity.
Creators always want to push boundaries and make something different, and they choose to work with John Mark because he has an innate natural creativity and skill for design, engineering, and machinery. And it is this talent that is unlocking technology and forging new applications. Within the HP team, he is referred to as “the Wizard”, a title he wholeheartedly deserves.
Over the years many new substates have been added to build their impressive print base portfolio, some which have challenged the technology – but they experiment with them regardless. It’s this curiosity and perseverance that breaks boundaries and as John-Mark said “It's all part of making life more exciting, who just wants to print non-woven forever? I do love the technology. I knew nothing about digital when I first started. I've always said that I know a lot about wallpaper, but actually being with the machines and seeing what they're capable of fascinates me. I often think how on earth can those six colors have created that. Every day is a different day. We have so many customers designing amazing stuff”.
On the horizon for Autumn are other new developments. Some remain top secret – others we can reveal.
On the materials front John Mark Ltd.’s sourcing team have been working hard to bring new substrates to market. In September they will launch a brand-new range of wallcoverings called Minerali weave – a stunning array of textured wallcoverings that are made from sand/minerals and are part of the glass family, making them 100% plastic free. The products are made in Italy, and the team have signed an exclusivity deal with the Italian mill. John-Mark added “We’re really, really excited about this new range of products coming through which are going to offer customers more sustainable options.”
What John-Mark and his team have achieved deserves the industries praise. He has taken an emerging technology and carved a niche, to build an empire that brings his customers and partners creative joy and commercial prosperity. His business signposts a new industry and we wish them every success for their ongoing expansion and look forward to covering their new developments in the very near future.
Colour Is Too Important to Leave to Chance
Print will always be the part of the garment people see first.
But the sum of all parts — the fabric, the trims, the fasteners, the finish — is what determines whether a design actually delivers on its promise. Brands that continue to treat colour as a single creative decision, rather than a coordinated technical discipline spanning their entire supply chain, will keep paying for it in re-dips, delays, and disappointed design teams.
A Century of Textiles, and an Ever-changing World
Few companies can trace their roots back more than a century and still count themselves among their industry's innovators. Texia, headquartered in Monistrol de Montserrat, Spain, is one of them.
But the story of Texia is not simply one of longevity.
It is a story of continual reinvention. As the textile industry has grown more global and competitive, Texia has repeatedly reshaped its business, investing in technology, developing its own brands, and placing sustainability at the centre of its mission. In doing so, it offers a compelling example of how a heritage manufacturer can lead rather than follow through a period of profound industry change. Image Credit: Texia
What are we craving Ultimately?
The instinct to slow down while simultaneously optimising every measurable aspect of life isn't a passing curiosity. It's a structural response to a world that feels increasingly unstable, and it's reshaping what people expect from their homes, hotels, workplaces and healthcare environments alike.
For the design and manufacturing sectors, this means rethinking both product and process.
The Structual Shift is Real and its Already Here
Volumes are moving east, where digital production is accelerating rapidly. Consumer behaviour has shifted.
Demand is now driven by personalisation, shorter buying cycles, and an expectation of near-instant responsiveness. Regulatory pressure is intensifying, with supply chain transparency now a legal and commercial fact in many markets. And margins? They are under sustained, structural pressure.
This is not a temporary disruption. It is a fundamental reordering of how textile manufacturing must operate.
The Challenge: Standing Firm as the Industry Shifts
The wallpaper landscape has changed dramatically. Digital printing has lowered the barrier to entry, spawning countless direct-to-consumer brands and pushing much of the market towards faster, cheaper production.
At the same time, manufacturing in the UK has grown steadily harder - rising minimum wage, national insurance, energy and substrate costs all bear down on margins. Surface Print have embraced all of these challenges - and stand resolutely prepared for the future.
From Helsinki's printing mill to Paris's Le Marais, discover how Marimekko is scaling a design-led brand with purpose, craft, and bold innovation.
But what makes Marimekko's story compelling is not just its aesthetic legacy?
The word "toxic" carries weight. It conjures danger, harm, and things best avoided.
“Yet in the textile industry - Where between 3,000 and 10,000 chemicals move through the supply chain, a reflexive fear of the term is one of our biggest obstacles to progress.”
This article distils the key takeaways and what buyers, designers, and brands should be asking right now.
What Is the Digital Product Passport?
At its core, a Digital Product Passport is a digital record attached to a physical product - For a printed textile product, this means the DPP would capture data on the substrate, inks and dyes used, the printing process and technology, chemical compliance, environmental impact (including water and energy use), supply chain traceability, and end-of-life instructions.
The Market Gap that Changed Everything
Future Fashion was founded in 2019, timed deliberately to coincide with a pivotal moment in global textile technology: the commercial launch of the EFI Reggiani BOLT Single-Pass digital printing system.
The founders recognised that single-pass architecture had fundamentally changed what was industrially possible - and that Pakistan's domestic market had yet to catch up.
Print is no longer defined by the inefficiencies that once characterised it…as advances in production processes and technology have significantly improved its environmental performance.
Taran Rai, Corporate Sustainability Manager at Epson explains why?
The story of what happens when young designers access digital technology is still being written.
What once was a theoretical sustainability goal seems to have shifted into an active regulatory reality.
Is the Textile Market Finally Recovering?
After a difficult few years, there are genuine reasons for optimism. Duncan was candid about the challenges: "The market for textiles has been very difficult over the last three years. I'm not going to hide the truth there. But the tide is turning.“
A profound shift is currently reshaping the sector
Changing consumer expectations demand greater design diversity, faster turnaround times, and sustainable manufacturing practices.
To thrive, interior brands must adapt their supply chains, bringing production closer to the end consumer and moving away from bulk manufacturing.
Digital textile printing offers a definitive solution to these operational bottlenecks.
Digital transformation doesn't announce itself.
It accumulates - one innovation at a time - until an entire industry looks back and realises the ground has shifted beneath its feet. That's precisely where textiles stands today.
The conversations happening now about AI, automation, sustainability, and digital product passports are not theoretical. They are shaping decisions being made on factory floors and in boardrooms right now.
“By leveraging advanced digital textile printing, Marylene Madou has successfully merged traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Her approach offers a blueprint for how independent designers can scale their brands globally while maintaining a minimal environmental footprint.”
The textile industry is undergoing a vital transformation. As the insights from Techtextil and Texprocess reveal, the path forward relies on a combination of sustainable hardware, intelligent chemistry, and seamless digital workflows.
From Zimmer's industrial-scale energy reductions and Stratasys's on-demand 3D embellishments, to Kornit's single-step technical printing and the unified digital ecosystems of NedGraphics and Optitex, the tools for change are here. To stay competitive, brands and manufacturers must adopt these innovations, moving away from fragmented, wasteful processes towards a truly connected, circular economy.
Friedmans stands as a testament to the power of combining traditional textile knowledge with forward-thinking innovation.
“Operating from their UK headquarters, Friedmans now serves a diverse array of sectors, including swimwear, dance, entertainment, sportswear, interior decor, prosthetics, and even pet apparel. With a strategic supply chain that reliably serves clients worldwide”
The apparel decoration industry is decisively moving away from isolated, analogue production tools toward connected digital manufacturing environments.
"Kornit’s unwavering commitment to transformative technology continues to disrupt the status quo. For business leaders and innovators ready to capture the future of apparel manufacturing, the path forward is clear”
The Urgent Need for Sustainability at Scale
The transformation at Coats provides a vital blueprint for the wider textile and apparel sector. True sustainability cannot be achieved in silos. As Dearing emphasised:
“Cross-industry collaboration is the engine of meaningful change. Brands, machinery suppliers, chemical providers, and fibre producers must act as an interconnected ecosystem”
Today’s customers demand superior product quality, real-time data visibility, and lightning-fast turnaround times.
For large-scale garment decorators, managing these expectations while balancing seasonal demand fluctuations - such as the massive surges seen during Black Friday - presents a monumental challenge.
"Relying on transactional vendor relationships and outdated legacy equipment is no longer sufficient to secure long-term stability and growth.”
Printing method is never a secondary detail. It shapes the entire life cycle of a product, from concept to customer. In today’s fashion industry, where margins are tighter and speed matters more than ever, technical knowledge has become a competitive advantage.
“The future of textile design belongs to professionals who can combine creativity with execution, aesthetics with practicality, and vision with production reality”.
