INX Digital International today announced an agreement to partner with preferred vendor Advantage Sign Supply, and supply its TRIANGLE™ EDX inks for Sign-A-Rama franchisees with Roland printers. The deal was announced in INX Digital’s booth at the Specialty Graphics Imaging Association’s 2011 SGIA Expo in New Orleans.
Both Advantage Sign Supply and Sign-A-Rama have been in business for over 20 years. Based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Advantage Sign Supply is known for its specialized service and national coverage to the sign and graphics industry. With over 90 employees and 10 regional facilities, they provide equipment, supplies, software and computer systems. Sign-A-Rama is the world’s largest sign franchise with over 800 locations in 50 countries. The company offers a broad range of services for businesses from full production to design and digital printing, and its franchisees produce signs, banners, vehicle wraps and decals, among other products.
Since INX Digital introduced the environmentally conscious EDX inks in 2010, company President Ken Kisner says the marketplace has responded very positively and presents an ideal solution for specialty imagers.
“We are very pleased to announce this dealer agreement with Advantage Sign Supply,” Kisner said. “The North American marketplace is looking for more green initiative products like EDX because they are safer to use and better for the environment. I’m confident that it’s the right product and the right time. Advantage Sign Supply is a terrific and innovative partner. Our hope is that Sign-A-Rama franchisees agree EDX is the right solution for them.”
“Advantage Sign Supply is thrilled to be able to bring the Triangle ink solution to all Sign-A-Rama franchisees. The ability to hot swap cartridges from OEM inks to EDX and not see any change except in cost savings is a powerful solution for all Sign-A-Rama locations,” said Javier Mahmoud, Advantage Sign Supply National Accounts Manager.

What exactly is a boat wrap? Similar to a vehicle wrap, it’s basically laminated vinyl on which a photorealistic, computer-created image has been applied. This adhesive backed vinyl is applied to the boat by a skilled professional like yourself, with the potential for big profits to your business.
The same as many auto owners, recreational boaters take lots of pride in their vessels. Many recreational boaters are now choosing to have their boats wrapped to distinguish their cherished boat from all the others out on the water. True, there are some alternatives to wraps, such as airbrushing and decals, but the former is often too expensive, while the latter isn’t nearly as exciting as a full boat wrap.
