Premier Digital Textiles and Mimaki Showcase the Future of Digital Print Innovation
Premier Digital Textiles and Hybrid Services, Mimaki’s exclusive distributor for the UK and Ireland, recently highlighted the power of industry collaboration at the TRAPIS & More Showcase.
The event, held at Hybrid’s showroom, brought together leaders in print design and manufacturing to demonstrate how partnership is driving the next wave of textile innovation, with a strong focus on sustainability and performance.
The showcase served as a platform to exhibit the convergence of advanced print technology, materials science, and creative application.
Premier Digital Textiles played a crucial role by supplying its PrepRITE™ digitally prepared fabrics, which are engineered to deliver the consistency and colour vibrancy demanded by modern digital printing systems like those from Mimaki.
The collaboration underscores how high-quality, stable substrates are fundamental to achieving superior print results.
Toby Lunn of Premier Digital Textiles commented on the significance of the partnership. "Our collaboration with Hybrid Services and Mimaki demonstrates the power of joined-up innovation. Mimaki is at the forefront of print technology; we focus on optimised, sustainable fabric solutions. When you combine those strengths, you get print ecosystems that perform consistently, reduce waste, and accelerate production."
A key theme of the event was the industry’s shift beyond questioning digital printing's viability to exploring its future potential. Discussions focused on evolving pigment technologies and hybrid print systems designed for both speed and environmental responsibility.
This aligns with the growing consensus that sustainability is no longer an optional feature but a baseline requirement, with new technologies being designed with closed-loop principles, reduced water and energy use, and recyclability in mind.
The partnership between Premier Digital Textiles, Mimaki, and Hybrid Services signals a strong future for the UK’s digital textile printing sector.
By connecting creative talent with manufacturing capability and sustainable innovation, these collaborations are enabling the UK textile industry to lead on a global stage.
The showcase confirmed that through close partnership, cutting-edge ideas are successfully being transformed into commercial reality.
