Durable or Safe - with the new Uniform Brigadier you get both....

You asked us for a printer that offered the print durability and performance of systems using aggressive solvent inks, along with the safer ink chemistry usually associated with Eco-Solvent print systems.

The Uniform Brigadier is the answer to this request. Our unique CitroSOL ink chemistry offers print durability and wear resistance that rivals some commercial grand format systems, yet is laboratory certified as being 100% cyclohexanone and isophorone free, putting it squarely in the same range of safety as Eco-Solvent inks.

A further advantage of our CitroSOL inks is that they are also completely free of the noxious odour normally associated with solvent printers, in fact if they smell of anything, it's Lemons!

As reliable as a water-based printer

During extensive product testing and development we have optimised our inks for outstanding unattended operation. Unlike some solvent print systems, which often need daily preventative maintenance, particularly if the machine has been offline or inactive for any amount of time, our Brigadier printer with our unique ink chemistry, is virtually maintenance free, and as easy to own and operate as a traditional water-based inkjet.

The Brigadier prints more, for less...

The Brigadier is aimed squarely at businesses that up to this point have been successfully working with large-format aqueous printers such as the Encad Novajet, producing print for indoor displays.

Because the Brigadier prints to uncoated paper, film and media you can dramatically reduce your current production costs when compared with water-based inkjets that rely on coated substrates.

Fully outdoor durable print

CitroSOL inks are unique in having no solvent odour, instead they give off an aroma of Lemons. Don't be fooled into thinking this makes CitroSOL a compromised solution, this ground-breaking ink chemistry retains the outdoor durability and wear-resistance that Uniform solutions are famous for.

Because of this greatly improved wear resistance and outdoor durability when compared to eco-solvent inks, Brigadier users can also make the move into full, highly profitable and uncompromising outdoor print solutions that don't involve the need for the laminating and finishing that is a necessity on water-based printers.

The CitroSOL inks in the Brigadier printer have made it virtually bullet-proof. During prolonged testing over a period of a month we couldn't get a single print nozzle to fail. Even after being switched off for a week, it printed as soon as it was turned back on, without need of any head cleaning or maintenance.
