The current market's demands are changing from volume purchasing for the lowest possible cost to timely purchasing.These trends favor digital printing's capabilities and advantages, and offer the promise of satisfying these new market demands. Any comparison of analog and digital capacities must also consider customer demand that makes capacity pertinent. Since retail industry buyers increasingly want to reduce inventory, risk, and response time from design to delivery, print providers will necessarily concentrate more on producing shorter runs with rapid turnaround than larger volumes at lower prices. Indeed, we see the opening of new channels and are pleased to provide digital textile printing.
