Speaking of their participation in the marketing and media event, Ashish Panjabi, Chief Operating Officer, Jacky's Gulf FZE, said, "The industry as a whole is quite vibrant in the region; just in the first half of this year there has been a USD 500 million spend out of which, over three per cent has been on billboards.

The HP Designjet 10000s is the latest printer with 2.5m (104 inch) width, suitable for outdoor applications using low-solvent inks. The printer is capable of high productivity and printing on uncoated media for lower running costs and greater ROI. HP Low-Solvent Inks provide excellent durability without lamination on low-cost, uncoated media. The HP Designjet 10000s has the speed and low running costs that makes digital technology not only attractive today but also financially feasible.
The HP Designjet 5500 series allows printers some of the fastest speeds available--without compromising image quality.
