Skara KG in Würzburg has been specializing in digital printing on decorating materials and has since 2007 set up a new business segment: finishing of glass. Next to the application of decoration for interiors they have ordered and installed an industrial production line Virtu RS35 from Polytype for printing on glass, which enables professional growth.

Skara KG has been established in 1997 as digital printing shop. The company with 18 employees prints on decorating materials of up to a width of 250 cm on a dye-sublimation printer as well as on 3 latex printers in widths up to 165 and 260 cm. They produce typical posters for impinging light or transparency on photographic paper for brilliant colors and good contrasts or backlit films for display cases. Latex printers are used to print on wallpapers for internal and external use or for company name plates, car decorations and exhibition boards.

 When the first Virtu RS25 flatbed printer for rigid materials was installed one could also produce large size posters up to 18/1 placards and twin-wall sheet  as a rigid alternative for printing on paper or expanded plastic slabs. Since UV-curable inks adhere extremely well to non-absorbing substrates it became possible to print on all kinds of plastics as well as on wood, glass and acryl.
