January 23, 2023 : Having recently launched its all-new Acuity range of wide format presses, Fujifilm is looking to strengthen and grow its market position in the UK, with the appointment of Andy Webb as Wide Format Sales Manager.
Andy Webb, who has worked in the sector for more than a decade, will be responsible for the sale of Fujifilm’s Acuity range throughout the UK, as well as well as managing channel partner relationships
Prior to joining Fujifilm, Webb held managerial, consultant and sales roles at a number of respected print and technology firms, including Canon, Vpress and Ricoh.
Commenting on his new position at Fujifilm, Webb says: “What Fujifilm is doing in wide format is tremendously exciting – but what I found equally appealing about the company, is that so much is happening in other parts of the business too – and there’s a real sense of joint purpose across the whole company. It’s an established business, doing new and innovative things, and I’m delighted to have joined at such an exciting time.”
Speaking about the new Acuity range, Webb adds: “The first time I saw the Acuity Prime and Acuity Ultra R2, I was blown away by their print speeds and output quality, and I was very impressed by the prints they produced. The range features an amazing product line, with the potential to be really transformative for UK print businesses.”
Andy Kent, Division Manager, Fujifilm UK comments: “I am delighted to welcome Andy to the UK team. We are immensely proud of our new wide format range, and Andy’s extensive print industry knowledge and experience will be invaluable in bringing it to a much bigger audience across the country.”
About The Fujifilm Acuity Range
With a track record of pioneering innovations, Fujifilm has helped thousands of sign and display printers transform their businesses.
But in a world where change is constant, three years ago we decided to go back to the drawing board to define a new blueprint for UV inkjet print performance.
The result is a brand new range of Acuity printers designed and developed by Fujifilm that redefine price/performance and transform print ROI.
They bring new meaning to versatility and value and reset the expectations around ease of use.
And being developed by Fujifilm, they come fuelled by the best UV ink on the market and a guarantee of outstanding quality and reliability.
The first two presses made to this new blueprint are the Acuity Ultra R2 and the Acuity Prime.
Both are the end result of countless hours of R&D and face-to-face market research.
The Acuity Ultra R2 is a completely redesigned and significantly improved version of our super-wide format Acuity Ultra, which itself set a new benchmark for price, performance and quality when it was launched in 2018.
The Acuity Prime is an entirely new, mid-range flatbed which offers ease of use and print ROI unmatched by anything else on the market.
We’re delighted that both the Acuity Ultra R2 and the Acuity Prime have already been recognised for design excellence by the prestigious Red Dot design awards, one of the most internationally sought-after seals of quality for good design.
What the Red Dot judges have seen already, many print businesses around the world are also soon going to see for themselves: the new blueprint for wide format.
