HYDRID SERVICES LTD

NOPINZ finishes with flying colours Founded in 2013, NOPINZ is a renowned UK-based manufacturer of clothing for cyclists and triathletes. The company’s first product was the ‘SpeedPocket’, a product that allows competitors to attach their race numbers more easily (and with ‘no pins’) while improving the all-important aerodynamics. Soon recognising the customer demand for premade attire with incorporated number pockets, the company embarked on a mission to manufacture these new product lines itself. Today, NOPINZ boasts a diverse portfolio, with 60% of its products made in-house, catering to a growing customer base across the UK and international markets.

Gearing up to grow “We tested out a few printers, before we ultimately settled on Mimaki,” Blake Pond, the founder of NOPINZ explained. Now the company’s line-up entirely consists of Mimaki’s textile dye sublimation solutions, purchased through Mimaki Authorised Partner, Xpres. With an initial investment in two TS300P-1800 in 2016, NOPINZ later upgraded its technology capabilities with a TS55-1800 in 2022.

“During our search we prioritised the ability to produce fluorescence and

accurately replicate colours.

Customers often come to us with existing kit made by other manufacturers, which they want to match, so accurately replicating colour is extremely important. And even without existing kit, customers occasionally ask for specific pantone colours. When it comes to cycling kit, colour is often pivotal when considering where to buy from.”

As two flagship dye sublimation printers, both the TS300P-1800 and TS55-1800 are equipped to print on the various technical fabrics that are

needed for cycling attire and faithfully reproduce colours to meet customer expectations.

NOPINZ places a strong emphasis on sustainability and is committed to minimising its environmental impact.

Using a microfactory approach gives better oversight and control of the manufacturing process, including sourcing materials sustainably and locally where possible, reducing transportation, and improving access to recycling. “Our ‘zero to landfill’ policy, means that we reduce our wastage where possible and either recycle or donate excess product to charity,” Blake adds. “We hope to become a B-Corp company in the future.”

Making the production aerodynamic With a steadily growing customer base across the UK and abroad, NOPINZ began to look for ways to finetune its processes. “Preparing orders for print was done manually and the time needed to do so had become a significant bottleneck in our production process,” Blake explained,

“As we looked to scale up, we knew something needed to change. We got a recommendation for Early.Vision, which offer software solutions for the apparel industry, in May 2022 and since then, it’s been smooth sailing!”

Early.Vision supports in streamlining the design to production workflow, allowing designers to focus on design and create nesting ready files that are prepared for production automatically based on eCommerce orders. It integrated its software to work seamlessly with Mimaki’s RIP software.

“We immediately saw significant improvements, in both time and cost,” explained Blake. “It used to take us 36 hours to print 150 items, we can now do the same in 90 minutes!”

Beyond the printing process itself, NOPINZ have seen other benefits to taking on Early.Vision’s technology.

“While we endeavour to produce mostly in-house (about 60%), when we do need to outsource, it’s much easier to send these print runs to other locations to be made. As we look to scale up our own production, this will also be a huge help.”

High-tech, high-accuracy NOPINZ creates speed suits for some of the world’s top cycling teams, as well as competitive amateurs. “A World Tour team is like a Premier League football team, winning and losing by very fine margins. A lot of the kit we make for them is custom fitted, completely bespoke, not just in terms of the print but the whole fit of the item. We even look at minute details

such as the material placement to further improve the aerodynamics. We then use 3D scanning to get the measurements of the athlete exactly right. For this, the athlete stands in a booth, and are scanned, with those precise measurements being used in the creation of the kit,” explained Blake.

Global expansion with Mimaki

“We’re looking to further expand in the USA and Australia and because we want to manufacture local to the market, that means setting up microfactories in those new locations.

Considering its importance to our customers, we really want to keep colours consistent no matter where they order from, so we wouldn’t consider moving away from Mimaki as our preferred supplier.”

As NOPINZ eyes expansion into new territories, Blake expects that Mimaki dye sublimation solutions will remain the company’s printers of choice:

TEN TALKS PROMOTIONAL MERCHANDISE

The Promotional Merchandise Industry:

A Journey of Gifts, Trophies, and Awards The tradition of gift-giving has a deep and varied historical background, with origins in practices such as showing hospitality, expressing gratitude, or marking special celebrations. Yet, in the latter part of the 20th century, a new industry began to take shape, grounded in the art of gift-giving.

Businesses and commerce have long understood the significant benefits that companies and corporate entities can gain from offering gifts to their current and prospective clients. In its modern, worldwide form, promotional merchandise has evolved into a potent instrument for promoting brands and products, all the while playing a crucial role in building and strengthening corporate identities.

However, in the latter part of the 20th century, a novel industry emerged, built on the foundation of gift-giving.

Both business and commerce have long recognised the profound advantages that companies and corporate entities can derive from presenting gifts to their existing and potential clientele.

Promotional merchandise, in its contemporary global form, has emerged as a powerful tool for brand and product promotion while simultaneously fostering the establishment and fortification of corporate identities. Additionally, this practice extends beyond the corporate sphere, finding recognition in sporting events, cultural activities, and other occasions where gifts play a role in celebrating excellence and building lasting connections.

The practice of affixing a company’s name, logo, or message to products can be traced back to the 1800s.

The earliest recorded promotional items can be traced to 1789 when commemorative buttons were crafted to mark the election of George Washington as the President of the United States. In the early to mid-1800s, advertising calendars and wooden items found favour among businesses. However, the true genesis of this industry commenced in the late 19th century when a plethora of promotional products flooded the market.

In the United Kingdom, the promotional merchandise industry gained a more sophisticated profile and was officially recognised as a pivotal aspect of corporate marketing during the late 1950s. Before this period, companies sporadically distributed gifts to clients,

but the concept of a cohesive ‘promotional merchandise industry’ had yet to be fully realised. The watershed moment for the industry occurred in the 1970s, with a surge in corporate enterprises acknowledging the advantages of enhancing their corporate identity, brand, or product through the strategic use of gifts emblazoned with their logos and brand insignia.

In the early years, the array of available products was somewhat limited.

However, the early 1980s witnessed a surge in demand from distributors for a universal promotional product catalogue.

This catalogue, customised with the distributor’s branding, became an essential tool to present to their corporate clientele, ushering in an era marked by innovation and an expansive array of promotional items, trophies, and awards.

In 2023 and beyond, the popularity of promotional gifts is on the rise, and for good reason. In a world increasingly dominated by digital marketing, personalised physical items stand out as unique and memorable. They create a tangible connection between businesses and their customers. The ability to tailor these gifts to individual preferences and needs provides a more meaningful and emotional connection. Furthermore, in an era where sustainability and eco-friendliness are paramount, businesses are increasingly opting for eco-conscious, personalised gifts, aligning their brand with environmental responsibility. The power of personalised promotional gifts lies in their ability to leave a lasting impression, strengthen customer loyalty, and drive brand recognition, making them a key strategy for businesses in 2023 and beyond.

In TEN magazine you can find potential suppliers and services to help you discover the perfect promotional gift for your customers needs.

TEN TALKS SUBLIMATION

Exploring Sublimated Products: A Unique Alternative to Traditional Trophies Trophies have long been the symbol of recognition and achievement in various fields, from sports to business and beyond. However, in today’s diverse and rapidly changing world, a new trend is emerging, offering a fresh perspective on how to celebrate success. Sublimated products, with their versatility and customisation options, are becoming a compelling alternative to the conventional trophy.

Breaking the Mold: The Evolution of Awards

Personalisation Beyond Imagination

While traditional trophies have their charm and history, they are not always the best fit for every occasion. The limitations of size, shape, and design can sometimes restrict the ability to truly celebrate an individual’s or team’s accomplishments. This is where sublimated products step in. These products, often made from materials like ceramic, glass, or fabric, offer an opportunity to break free from the conventional mold.

One of the most remarkable features of sublimated products is the level of personalisation they allow. From custom designs and images to personal messages, the possibilities are virtually limitless. This makes them an ideal choice for commemorating individual milestones or celebrating team achievements in a way that resonates with recipients on a personal level.

Versatility for All Occasions Sublimated products are incredibly versatile and can be tailored to suit various occasions. Whether you’re honouring a corporate milestone, acknowledging an athlete’s achievements, or celebrating academic excellence, sublimated products can be adapted to fit the context perfectly. From personalised mugs, medals and plaques to custom-printed apparel and more, the range of options is extensive.

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable In an era when sustainability is paramount, sublimated products align with the growing demand for eco-conscious choices. By opting for reusable and environmentally friendly materials, these alternatives reflect a commitment to responsible and sustainable gifting.

TROPHY & ENGRAVING NEWS

OCTOBER 2023

The Emotional Connection Sublimated products go beyond mere recognition; they create an emotional connection. When a recipient receives a customised item that reflects their achievements or memories, it not only makes them feel appreciated but also cherished. This emotional bond can foster stronger relationships in both personal and professional spheres.

Embracing the Future of Recognition As we navigate the evolving landscape of recognition and achievement, sublimated products offer a forwardthinking approach that goes hand-in-hand with the desire for personalisation, sustainability, and versatility. Their ability to encapsulate moments and milestones in a tangible, customised format makes them an attractive option for a wide range of events and celebrations.

In conclusion, sublimated products are challenging the traditional notions of trophies and awards, providing a fresh perspective on recognising success.

Their adaptability, personalisation capabilities, and eco-friendly attributes make them a compelling choice for individuals, businesses, and organisations looking to celebrate achievements in a unique and meaningful way.

As the world continues to evolve, embracing alternatives like sublimated products allows us to celebrate success in a manner that truly resonates with the recipient while reflecting our commitment to sustainability and innovation.

NOVA CHROME UK

ChromaLuxe Matte White Unveiling Elegance: The Timeless Allure of ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal Prints In the ever-evolving world of photography and visual art, the pursuit of perfection in display mediums is an ongoing journey. One such pinnacle of visual refinement is the ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal print. Renowned for its captivating blend of modern technology and classic aesthetics, this medium has been embraced by photographers and artists seeking to elevate their work to new heights.

A Canvas of Innovation: What Sets ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal Apart?

ChromaLuxe has established itself as a pioneer in the realm of high-definition metal prints, consistently pushing the boundaries of image reproduction.

The Matte White Metal variant takes this innovation to a new level by offering a subdued yet exquisite finish that complements a wide array of artistic styles. This distinct surface quality fosters a balance between contemporary minimalism and the allure of traditional artistry.

The uniqueness of ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its exceptional durability. Using dye-

sublimation process, images are infused directly into specially coated aluminum sheets, resulting in a print that is scratch-resistant, weatherproof, and remarkably long-lasting. This longevity ensures that your artwork retains its original brilliance, with colours that remain vibrant and true over time.

Subtle Beauty in Every Detail: The Matte White Advantage The choice of print medium significantly impacts the perception of an image. The ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal lends a soft yet captivating appearance to photographs and artwork. This effect is achieved by combining the reflective qualities of aluminum with a low-gloss, smooth white finish, resulting in a surface that diffuses light subtly. This diffusion adds a level of depth to images, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the intricacies of the artwork without the distractions of glare or excessive shine.

The Matte White Metal surface excels in reproducing a wide gamut of colours and tones. From the deepest blacks to the most delicate highlights, this medium retains the finest details, creating an almost tactile visual experience. Photographers find that their images achieve a newfound sense of realism, while artists appreciate the medium’s ability to faithfully reproduce the textures and subtleties of their original creations.

Versatility That Inspires Creativity ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal prints are versatile in application, making them suitable for a diverse range of artistic endeavors.

Whether adorning the walls of a contemporary gallery, a cozy living space, or a professional workspace, these prints seamlessly adapt to their surroundings, enhancing the ambiance with their timeless charm.

Photographers gravitate toward ChromaLuxe Matte

White Metal for its capacity to render landscapes, portraits, and fine art photography with equal finesse.

The subdued yet vibrant quality of the medium adds a layer of narrative to each image, inviting viewers to explore the emotions and stories within.

Visual artists, on the other hand, appreciate how their creations are brought to life on this surface.

Paintings and mixed-media pieces find new dimensions, with the medium accentuating the interplay of colour and texture.

Preserving Your Vision: The ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal Promise In a world inundated with fleeting trends, ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal stands as a testament to enduring beauty and lasting impressions.

Whether you’re a photographer aiming to immortalise a moment or an artist seeking to share your vision, this medium offers a canvas that encapsulates the essence of your work.

With its remarkable durability, subtle elegance, and unrivaled versatility, ChromaLuxe Matte White Metal invites you to explore a realm where innovation and artistry intertwine seamlessly.

From ChromaLuxe “For portraits, weddings or anytime surface reflection is a concern, our Matte White finish is the optimal choice. The surface provides a rich, smooth finish where colours can come alive with perfect subtlety.”

“Our metal prints are in a class of their own, boasting exceptional brilliance and clarity in every photographic product.”

“ChromaLuxe allows for images to be infused directly into coated metal sheets, meaning each and every detail is vividly and accurately displayed.”
