MGI and AGFA to Promote Digital Specialty Finishing at 2015 SGIA Expo

MGI Digital Technology and AGFA Graphics will be showcasing innovative digital print enhancement solutions for creative graphic design applications at the annual SGIA Expo this week (Agfa Booth #3127). The event will be held at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA from November 4–6. The key MGI digital products that will be featured at Agfa’s booth at the Expo include the dual JETvarnish 3D & iFOIL system, which offers Spot UV coating with 2D/3D dimensional textures & embossed foiling. Variable Data Finishing (VDF) capabilities allow for personalization on each piece produced. MGI digital enhancement technology also allows short-run production work that can be customized for different versions — such as English or Spanish, Summer or Winter — according to customer needs. “We’re inspired by the opportunity to strengthen the Agfa product portfolio with the unique MGI advantage of post-press digital embellishment.” said Deborah Hutcheson, Agfa Graphics Director of Marketing. "Agfa and MGI are working closely together to offer the most creative – and profitable – print enhancement options to the SGIA printing community and the specialty graphic arts industry.” added Kevin Abergel, MGI Vice President of Marketing & Sales. Agfa Graphics and MGI have developed a global partnership across many countries and different business lines. In the United States, AGFA is a national distributor of MGI products and provides mission-critical support, service & supply chain resources to MGI customers.
