Think Pro, the event organised by Projecta together with Digital Design (both members of Gruppo B&T) on 14 June to present new digital printers, proved a big success. More than 200 guests including customers, journalists and politicians converged on the bt-SPACE for the event, where they had the opportunity to find out more about the company’s latest goals, namely consolidating its international market position and becoming a go-to global supplier of digital printing solutions, especially for the ceramic industry.

Four flagship technologies were launched at the event: the exclusive FD1 printheads, the new PRO and IKON digital printers, and the brand new DIGIFIX solution for microstructures, effects application and functional fluids, all of which are high-performance systems developed by the Projecta R&D department to serve the global market.

“Projecta stands for talent & technology, efficiency & speed, aesthetics & electronics,” commented Projecta’s CEO Luca Fanara when describing the company’s development. “Our aim is to consolidate our position as a leading player by improving constantly and by assuring markets that choosing Projecta means having the guarantee of high-quality production thanks to our in-house Italian expertise, a first-rate, punctual and professional after-sales service and immediate spare parts availability worldwide.”
