Three Roland DG Products Win 2026 PRINTING United Alliance Pinnacle Awards
Hamamatsu, Japan – July 2026 – Roland DG Corporation, a leading manufacturer of wide-format inkjet printers, printer/cutters, and other advanced digital devices, has announced that three of its products have received prestigious 2026 Pinnacle Awards from the PRINTING United Alliance:
· Dimense Media in the Non-Output – Media/Non-PVC category;
· ECO-UV EUV-H Inks in the Non-Output – Digital Inks/UV category;
· Roland DG Connect Designer in the Non-Output – Software/Web-Based Design, Personalisation, or Product Building category.
Presented annually, the Pinnacle Awards recognise excellence in technology and product innovation within the printing industry, highlighting advancements that contribute to industry growth and the impact these award-winning companies have on shaping the future of printing.
In making its selections for the 2026 competition, a panel of experts evaluated a total of 71 product entries, awarding 25 Output winners, 32 Non-Output winners, and 14 Technology winners.
Dimense Media, which won a Pinnacle Award in the Media/Non-PVC category, is an innovative, digitally printable substrate designed to bring out the best in Roland DG’s Dimense DA-640 – a revolutionary dimensional surface printer that makes it easy and cost-effective to create uniquely textured wallcoverings, fine art, signage, retail displays, packaging, and more.
In addition to being PVC-free and environmentally friendly, the proprietary composition of Dimense media allows for a unique chemical interaction with Dimense water-based inks and the DA-640’s heater.
This allows the user to control the media’s surface structure through this one-of-a-kind technology rather than building up layers of ink, resulting in richer textured finishes with stunning embossing depths of up to 2 mm.
EUV-H ink, the winner of a Pinnacle Award in the Digital Inks/UV category, is a new UV hard ink that’s compatible with existing Roland DG VersaObject™ MO Series benchtop flatbeds as well as the company’s new RC-300 Series cylindrical printers and the IO-300 industrial UV flatbed (slated for launch in the second half of 2026).
The latest edition to Roland DG’s ECO-UV ink family, EUV-H meets strict safety requirements, is low odor, and delivers superior durability and adhesion when printed on challenging surfaces like glass and metal, making it unbeatable for product customisation, personalisation, and manufacturing.
Roland DG Connect Designer, a Pinnacle Award winner in the Software/Web-based Design, Personalisation, or Product Building category, is a user-friendly, cloud-based online application that simplifies professional print design, making it accessible to users of all experience levels – even those with little or no prior design software experience.
It enables customers to quickly transform creative ideas into seamless, production-ready printing workflows that integrate directly with Roland DG’s VersaWorks® RIP software and printing devices. The core version of Roland DG Connect Designer is available at no charge to all Roland DG Connect accounts.
