Madhu Sudan Dadu, chairman, Colorjet Group, along with Seiji Nakashima, vice-president of inkjet components division, Konica Minolta and Shu Watanabe, group leader of inkjet components business, Konica Minolta inaugurated the new Colorjet Earth Series textile printing solutions.

Dadu said, “The Colorjet Earth Series is an advanced sustainable textile printing solution in the digital textile printing segment. This new process does not require additional equipment for pre and post treatment. By way of eliminating pre- and post-treatment, this has led to huge saving of water and energy, and provides competitive edge in sustainable direct-to-fabric printing category.”

Nakashima, said, “It’s a pleasure to be a part of this mega event, and inaugurate the Earth Series by Colorjet Group based on Konica Minolta printheads. We see that the worldwide textile industry is moving towards a sustainable production model to optimise usage of resources like water, power, and microfiber. We are glad that Colorjet has been constantly releasing future-ready solutions for a sustainable environment in the textile industry. We look forward for a promising relationship.”

The Earth Series comes with three models — 32, 16 and 8 inkjet powered by Konica Minolta printheads, inspired by the success of pigment solutions, operating successfully across the globe including India, Germany, Brazil, Vietnam, Pakistan and at other leading textile clusters.
