Home / Industries / Wide-format and sign

The kit is ready. The workflow isn't.

Wide-format shops keep adding capability: soft signage, DTF, new flatbeds. Each adds its own RIP, its own file rules and its own manual handoffs, while retail rollouts grow in stores, versions and delivery points.

Three things the research says.

01

AI adoption is splitting the market

57% of wide-format professionals already use AI; 26% have no plans at all.

Adjacencies are the growth path

Wide-format PSPs are adding soft signage and DTF next to their UV and dye-sublimation kit.

Integrated workflow is the next step

The industry conversation has moved beyond the RIP to connected wide-format workflow.

FESPA, 2025

Four handoffs, every order.

Each one is a person bridging two systems. Each one is a place where orders wait, errors creep in and margin leaks out.

The expensive part isn't the software. It's the people bridging the gaps between the software.
