ROSH HA'AYN, Israel, Nov. 05, 2019 -- Kornit Digital, a worldwide market leader in digital textile printing technology, announced that OnPoint Manufacturing, an innovative leader in on-demand personalized apparel manufacturing, will be implementing Kornit Presto as a cornerstone of its manufacturing optimization efforts.

The direct-to-fabric digital print system will be installed at the business’s Florence, Alabama facility.

OnPoint's on-demand manufacturing model is the most efficient and environmentally friendly model today delivering exceptional value and quality to its customers.

With the integration of the Kornit Presto, OnPoint can provide another level of personalized on-demand manufacturing.

OnPoint's streamlined inline production system improves leadtime, reduces costs, and reduces errors and waste.

OnPoint is also focused on the further development of software-to-software communication to improve these efficiencies to get from creator to consumer more quickly.

Using Kornit’s proprietary single-step print process, which features Fixation on the Fly (FOF) and the NeoPigment™ Robusto ink set, a 2019 SGIA Product of the Year will greatly increase quality and speed of OnPoint’s service offerings, offering integration of an inline roll-to-roll print system supporting efficient & sustainable manufacturing

The Presto is the most efficient, eco-friendly solution for digital pigment-based printing, with a small production footprint befitting both micro-factory and distributed production models.

Users can print across a broad array of fabrics using a single system, with minimal setup time and labour.

“Our goal has always been to have a complete inline system where we could go from direct-to-print to direct-to-manufacturing,” said J. Kirby Best, CEO of OnPoint Manufacturing. “The Kornit Presto is the first direct-to-fabric printer we’ve seen that doesn’t sacrifice quality for speed. This is a powerhouse of a printer that will keep up with demand and will connect seamlessly with our new Gerber Z1 cutter creating an unrivaled system in the on-demand manufacturing world.”

In selecting Kornit Presto, OnPoint cited Presto being the most advanced single-step solution available for direct-to-fabric printing – fast, efficient, eco-friendly, and well-suited for long-term end-to-end, on-demand manufacturing.

The business also noted potential expansion opportunities for its partnership with Kornit Digital, reflecting future growth.

“No single digital textile print system can match Presto’s combination of speed, graphic detail, handfeel, wash and rub fastness, and waste-free sustainability,” said Don Whaley, VP of Sales for Kornit Digital Americas. “This technology offers creators the capability to bring their creations to life, with an eco-responsible, efficient, and versatile process. We’re proud to partner with OnPoint and give their customers the highest print quality available today.”
