Each August, Digital Output runs this State of the Industry report. Any other year, the topics seem relatively similar despite a dynamic and ever-changing industry. This was not the case in 2020.
Print service providers (PSPs) are essential to the communities they serve. From wayfinding to promotional signage, organizations from museums to restaurants turn to them to produce graphics that communicate information to clientele as well as generate attention. Many PSPs are embedded in the community, offering one-stop services for all graphic and signage needs.
Wallcoverings are considered for a number of environments, including retail, commercial spaces, and the home. Places of worship aren’t institutions that may initially come to mind. However, one print service provider (PSP) found itself meeting the needs of a local congregation when it was contacted to print multiple wall graphics featuring religious icons.
Innovation is at the heart of the graphic arts and we should look no further than the print providers themselves for leading the charge. Resourceful business owners are everywhere and it’s no surprise that many of them leverage digital printing’s advantages with textiles for their own means.
