Signs Express Liverpool & Wirral Enhances Production with Third HP Latex Printer Installation
November 2025 Signs Express Liverpool & Wirral has significantly expanded its production capabilities with the installation of its third HP Latex printer this year, the HP Latex FS50W.
This strategic investment marks a new phase of growth and innovation for the franchise, enabling faster turnaround times and a broader range of creative applications for its clients.
The addition of the new printer has allowed the team, led by Ian Furlong and Louise Sergent, to achieve remarkable operational improvements.
The franchise now reports turnaround times on key projects that are up to ten times faster than before.
This enhancement in efficiency is complemented by the printer's 3.2-metre width, making Signs Express Liverpool & Wirral the first in the franchise network to install a printer of this size.
This has opened up new market opportunities, including bespoke wallpaper, high-quality vehicle wraps, and personalised signage.
To further optimise its workflow, the team has integrated HP Print OS.
This cloud-based solution enables them to streamline production processes and ensure consistent quality control, even when managing projects across different locations.
The investment, facilitated by HP's trusted partner Papergraphics, underscores a strong commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to meet and exceed customer expectations.
"This latest installation represents a significant milestone for our team, allowing us to push creative boundaries and deliver projects with unprecedented speed and quality," said Ian Furlong, co-leader of Signs Express Liverpool & Wirral. "Embracing HP's advanced latex technology has been pivotal in our strategy to innovate and expand our service offerings."
The continued partnership between HP, Papergraphics, and Signs Express Liverpool & Wirral highlights a shared dedication to driving the print industry forward.
By adopting advanced printing solutions, the franchise is well-equipped to handle increasingly complex customer demands while maintaining a competitive edge.
