Mimaki EDP Awards recognition reached a new milestone at FESPA Global Print Expo 2026, where Mimaki Europe secured three prestigious EDP Awards for its latest innovations in UV, textile and object printing. The award-winning UJ330H-160 hybrid UV printer, UJF-7151 plusII e flatbed printer and TS330-1800 sublimation printer demonstrate Mimaki’s commitment to helping print service providers increase flexibility, expand applications and improve production efficiency across multiple markets.
Mimaki Celebrates Triple EDP Award Win at FESPA 2026
Mimaki Europe, a leading manufacturer of industrial inkjet printers and cutting plotters, was presented with 3 EDP Awards at the association’s 2026 ceremony, held at FESPA Global Print Expo. These highly acclaimed awards celebrate best-in-class innovation across the print industry, and Mimaki was honoured in three different categories. The winning technologies were:
- Best Flatbed/Hybrid Printer <50 m2/h – UJ330H-160 hybrid UV printer
- Best Direct-to-Shape – Object Printing – UJF-7151 plusII e UV-LED flatbed printer
- Best Textile Roll-to-Roll Printer <150 m2/h – TS330-1800 sublimation printer
The first of Mimaki’s three wins was for the UJ330H-160, the company’s latest hybrid UV inkjet printer, developed for sign makers and print service providers looking to expand their application range without adding separate systems. Combining roll-to-roll and rigid board printing in one compact platform, the UJ330H-160 supports a wide mix of graphics applications, from signage, window graphics and banners to wallpaper, POS displays and rigid boards. Stable media handling, fast changeover between roll and rigid production, and value-added UV capabilities, including white, clear and multi-layer printing up to five layers, make it a practical response to the demand for more flexible, space-conscious and cost-efficient production.
“Winning three EDP Awards is significant recognition for the technical excellence of our innovations, but above all, we’re proud of what these technologies enable our customers to achieve,” comments Danna Drion, General Manager Marketing and Product Management, Mimaki Europe, who accepted the awards on behalf of Mimaki at FESPA. “The UJ330H-160 is a great example of this: innovation developed around real production needs. Print businesses are looking for flexibility, quality and a smarter use of space and investment. By bringing roll and rigid UV printing together in one accessible system, the UJ330H-160 gives them more ways to say yes to new work.”
Mimaki’s UJF-7151 plusII e was awarded by the EDP for direct-to-object printing. Built for industrial-grade precision, the printer combines high-resolution UV-LED output with the ability to print directly onto a wide range of objects and materials, supporting applications from promotional items and packaging to industrial parts and premium personalisation. Its ability to handle complex surfaces and objects, including cylindrical items with optional accessories, reflects the growing demand for high-value, customised production.
Completing the trio, the TS330-1800 was recognised in textile roll-to-roll printing. Designed for modern sublimation textile and apparel production, the printer combines productivity, image quality and operational stability, with a wide print area and ink configurations that support applications ranging from fashion and sportswear to soft signage, interiors and promotional products. With extended colour possibilities, including Orange, Violet and Fluorescent inks, the TS330-1800 helps textile producers deliver richer, more expressive output while maintaining reliable production.
Mimaki’s success at this year’s EDP Awards reflects the company’s ongoing focus on developing solutions that help print businesses diversify applications, improve production flexibility and create new value across multiple markets. Drion concludes: “These awards recognise three very different solutions, but they all share the same purpose: helping customers open up new applications, improve day-to-day production and build more resilient businesses. That is where we believe print innovation has the greatest impact.”
