Titan Literature Rack
As its name implies the Titan Literature Rack is a little heavier duty than many other display racks out there, which makes it perfect for holding heavier copy or withstanding a little wind or uneven ground at the occasional outdoor road show.
How is it Used?
The Innovative Literature Holder Display has 8 pockets for your various publications. It’s 31 lbs (good to know for shipping) and comes apart in three pieces, so its made for travel, but its sleek style would make it a nice addition to any office lobby. If you need printing equipment to create the publications to fill this stylish rack, Lloyd’s can help you with that too.
And How Much Does it Cost?
The Titan Literature Rack is $238 at Lloyd’s. We’ll throw in free shipping and a gift with your purchase.
Economy Tabletop Display with Graphics
It’s crisp, clean and will set your booth apart from the rest. The Economy Tabletop Display with Graphics takes all the worry out of setup for smaller venue trade shows. It also takes a little worry away from your marketing budget.
How is it Used?
I’ve seen many of these tabletop displays with individual graphics custom dry-mounted and cut stuck haphazardly on a fabric board. The display is different every time depending on who’s setting it up. However, if you opt for the Economy Tabletop Display with Graphics, there is no guesswork and you’ll have a professional, easy to set up display every time. Plus, the included carrying case will get your display from place to place in one piece, and under 10 pounds, it won’t weigh you down.
And How Much Does it Cost?
The Economy Tabletop Display with Graphics is $224 at Lloyd’s. We’ll throw in free shipping and a gift with your purchase.
OffiTrim Tabletop Paper Cutter
This looks like your average everyday tabletop paper cutter, but the OffiTrim Tabletop Paper Cutter is a cut above the rest with its heavy duty construction and extra features not found in other cutters in its class.
How is it Used?
The OffiTrim Tabletop Paper Cutter is simple. Starting with the measuring surface, which features a refined antirust treatment, you’ll line up your project on the clearly marked horizontal and vertical ruler-point system. Once in place a pressing bar will firmly hold your paper and the stainless hardened steel knife will efficiently cut your paper while a magnetic paper stopper keep you from making mistakes. When you’re done an automatic return safety control will keep your co-workers from doing something silly.
The OffiTrim Tabletop Paper Cutter also comes in two sizes. It all depends on how wide you expect your projects to get. The OffiTrim-1512 will accomodate up to a 15″ cut, while the OffiTrim-1518 will slice a 18″ sheet.
And How Much Does it Cost?
The OffiTrim Tabletop Paper Cutter models are available at Lloyd’s at a great price. The OffiTrim-1512 is $57.80 and the OffiTrim-1518 is $77.90. Plus, we’ll throw in free shipping and a gift with your purchase.
Orient Retractable Banner Stand
Admit it. You’ve seen your competition carrying around one of these Orient Retractable Banner Stands, and you’re jealous. We understand. It’s our most popular retractable stand. It’s a nice product and can certainly add some class to an otherwise boring booth space.
How is it Used?
When you set up your booth at your next exhibit, set the Orient Retractable Banner Stand on the floor, and unroll a beautiful six and a half foot graphic to grab the attention of passers-by. It’s like an upside down window shade — lift, and it’s up. The durable aluminum body will give you years of use, and you can get it in black or silver.
And How Much Does it Cost?
The Orient Retractable Banner Stand starts at $145 at Lloyd’s, depending on the width you prefer. This price is for the stand only. We’ll throw in free shipping and a gift with your purchase.
Five Benefits of UV Coating for Printed Documents
With fierce competition and prospects who seem to flop between overwhelm and distraction, outshining (not outspending) the competition becomes mandatory if you’re going to thrive in the marketplace. The same goes for your customers, who are feeling the same pressure to wow prospects without breaking the bank.
How do you do that in print? Industry experts point us to UV coating, citing the following five benefits of UV coating for print finishers.
1. UV Coating Has a Slick, High-End Look for Less
These days, both print clients and their prospects expect (demand, even) a high-gloss finish to their print materials and packaging.
As it turns out, slick print finishing is no longer a luxury exclusive to those with deep pockets: Even the little guy running a business out of his basement wants to impress his prospects with shiny, vibrant materials.
And, trust me, they’ll find a printer that can offer high-luster without the high price tag. (Is that you?)
2. UV Coating is High Value & High Profit
More than just a pretty finish, UV coating is also practical and easy on the wallet. That’s because its no-dry time allows for lightning-fast turnaround and decreased manpower.
In the age of “I need this yesterday,” it’s an ideal solution for last-minute orders and challenging deadlines. How’s that for a competitive advantage?
3. UV Coatings are Environmentally Friendly
Can a sweet deal to your pocketbook be as sweet to the environment? It turns out UV coating and green printing go together like bees and honey.
After researching new UV technologies and EPA guidelines, Steve Waxman, a print consultant writing for the Printing Industry Exchange, reported the following findings:
- Newer UV materials are safe to workers and not carcinogenic.
- UV coatings can be recycled as “mixed waste.”
- Unlike solvent-based coatings, UV coatings are less flammable and do not release volatile compounds into the atmosphere.
- Its fast, no-heat drying ability requires less energy.
4. It’s Scratch Resistant
Who wants to invest in fancy-schmancy finishing that gets beaten to a pulp by the time it reaches its intended recipients? Not the folks paying you money, I can tell you that much.
While there are other scratch resistance methods for print products, UV coating may offer the best versatility and ROI. What does that mean for you? Satisfied customers coming back for more.
5. It’s More Than Just Paper
Even with knock’em-dead finishing, your customer’s needs don’t end with paper products. Rather, they want the same top-notch, low-cost solutions for banners, point-of-purchase displays, chotchkies, and beyond.
Lucky for you, the versatility of UV coating allows you to branch out into plastics and vinyl. Let me put it this way: More product options = More profits.
Combining high luster, high value and green printing, UV coating is one sure way for you and your clients to outshine the competition. Literally.
