Expand your business with direct-to-object printing

Winning new customers is always valuable, but one of the easiest ways to grow is by offering existing customers more of what they already buy.

That’s exactly where direct-to-object printing comes in. With a Mimaki UJF UV flatbed printer, businesses can move beyond traditional graphics and start printing directly onto a huge range of products, creating new revenue opportunities without changing their core business.

More than promotional products

Branded drinkware and promotional merchandise remain popular applications, but they’re only part of the story. Pens, notebooks, acrylic awards, retail displays, signage, personalised gifts and decorative products can all be produced quickly and cost-effectively using a Mimaki UJF printer.

For many commercial print businesses, these are products their customers are already purchasing elsewhere. Bringing them in-house creates opportunities to increase order values while strengthening existing customer relationships.

A solution for manufacturing

Direct-to-object printing is equally at home in manufacturing. From branded components and membrane panels to control panels and instrument dials, digital printing makes short production runs, prototypes and customised products both practical and economical.

By removing the setup costs associated with traditional decoration methods, businesses gain greater flexibility while reducing lead times and improving responsiveness.

Bring production closer to your business

More companies are choosing to produce product decoration in-house, giving them greater control over quality, scheduling and costs. Having the capability on-site also encourages experimentation, making it easier to develop prototypes, trial new ideas and respond quickly to customer requests.

Compact, clean and easy to integrate into an existing workflow, the Mimaki UJF Series is designed for exactly this kind of production environment.

Technology that keeps expanding possibilities

Today’s direct-to-object printing technology is capable of far more than printing onto flat surfaces. Mimaki’s latest LD printing technology allows graphics to be applied to objects with uneven or stepped surfaces, while the optional Kebab HS system enables full-wrap printing onto bottles, flasks and other cylindrical products.

Combined with simple production jigs and variable data printing, businesses can produce personalised items accurately, consistently and efficiently.

Add value without changing direction

For many businesses, diversification doesn’t have to mean entering unfamiliar markets. It simply means offering existing customers a broader range of products.

Whether you’re a commercial printer, sign maker or operate in the manufacturing sector, direct-to-object printing provides an accessible route into product personalisation, short-run production and custom printing. With the latest Mimaki UJF MkII e UV flatbed printer, it’s possible to add value, improve responsiveness and unlock entirely new revenue opportunities from customers you already know.
