Decrastrip has supported the New Zealand sign and graphics industry for nearly 20 years, working hard to make personal service and support a major point of difference
MAL Place, managing director of Decrastrip, says, “It’s not just about selling a printer. Anyone can buy a wide format printer but after they’ve bought it, what happens next? We have dedicated trained technicians which enables us to keep up with the growing demands of this rapidly changing industry.”
The company places an emphasis on quality service, technical expertise and support. Place says, “Whether it be for servicing, technical or software support, we pride ourselves on personal touch making sure our technicians can be contacted directly which saves the frustration of having to go through a call centre.”
Among its Roland DG technology, the company is excited about the VersaSTUDIO BN-20. Place says, “It’s a 20 inch Metallic desktop eco-solvent printer/cutter; a complete solution, including VersaWorks RIP software. The BN-20 is well suited for use in small or home offices, print shops or kiosks. Designed for small lot production on demand, it can serve as either a primary printer or secondary device to support a growing business. The BN-20 sits right on the desk top allowing professionals to quickly and easily produce a wide range of full colour prints with metallic effects on demand.”
Decrastrip supplies Roland and Avery Graphic materials. Place continues, “We are fortunate that we have the capabilities to provide businesses with a worldwide brand in Avery Dennison which enables us to have the expertise and technical support from one of the largest suppliers of pressure–sensitive materials.”
The company has moved forward at a rapid pace over the past few years and Place believes the combination of the best machines, distributing the full Avery Graphics portfolio and technical back-up will only increase Decrastrip’s momentum. He concludes, “With these two great brands it puts Decrastrip in an enviable position of being able to support a one–stop turn-key service to the print sign and graphic industry.”
