Customer Success Story: Arte Grafica
Arte Grafica has grown from a home printing business founded in 1967 into a multi award winning large format printer, now run by Tony and De’Arne Cavaiuolo alongside founder Ennio.
As demand shifted toward on demand, digital jobs, Arte Grafica risked losing customers without the right equipment. A Konica Minolta C8000 changed that, tripling the business’s digital work almost immediately. As volume grew further, the company upgraded to the bizhub PRESS C1100, adding in line saddle stitch finishing and consistently high output quality, from short runs to a million impressions a month.
Konica Minolta demonstrated a level of professionalism and technical competence that made us very confident they could deliver.
