Fremont, California, June 3, 2015 \u2013<\/em> EFI\u2122 (Nasdaq: EFII) is marking the 10-year anniversary of its acquisition of VUTEk\u00ae, a pioneering developer of superwide-format industrial inkjet technologies. The landmark deal, completed on June 3, 2005, moved EFI from focusing only on digital production and print MIS workflows into the industrial inkjet space \u2013 an industry segment that continues to be one of the best-performing parts of the global graphic arts and printing market.<\/p>\n

When EFI first announced its plans to acquire VUTEk, EFI CEO Guy Gecht praised the Meredith, N.H.-based company as \u201cthe best acquisition to enter the market,\u201d adding that \u201cits UV applications bring interesting advantages to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTen years later, the significant success we have seen with our VUTEk, Jetrion and Cretaprint products definitely validates our decision to enter the industrial inkjet market,\u201d Gecht said today.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m tremendously proud, looking at our accomplishments over the past decade, of the innovation that EFI has brought to industrial inkjet and the success of our customers across the world,\u201d said Scott Schinlever, who joined EFI as part of the VUTEk acquisition and is now SVP\/GM of EFI Inkjet Solutions. \u201cTen years later, when I look at the team, road map and market expectations, I can only conclude that the best is yet to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today, EFI\u2019s robust inkjet portfolio has expanded beyond VUTEk superwide-format printers to include Jetrion label and packaging printers, wide-format printers, inks and Cretaprint ceramic tile printers.<\/p>\n

You can watch the evolution of EFI inkjet innovations in a new video on EFI\u2019s YouTube channel.<\/p>\n
