Versamount, the manufacturer of polypropylene roll-up panel for flatbed printers, has signed a distribution agreement with the Robert Horne Group.

Robert Horne now joins Drytac as a joint exclusive distributor of Versamount in the UK.

Commenting on the new distribution agreement, Trevor Martin, managing director of Versamount UK, said: "We've chosen the Robert Horne Group as it is the largest distributor of printing substrates in the UK.

It is well known and well respected with nationwide coverage and a large customer base." The Versamount roll panel sheet is claimed to be flexible, ultra-lightweight and portable, which can fulfill a range of printing, display, exhibition and POS applications.

The Versamount sheet is a rigid plastic panel that can rolled up and packed away in a tube, making it practical and easy to transport, said the company.

Users can print direct on to its surface, or they can pre-print and mount graphics to it.

The sheets can be formed in to virtually any shape, including solid structures and exhibition stands, which had previously required banners, for instance.

They are also water resistant and fire retardant.

The basic Versamount sheet is made up from flat twinwall polypropylene (corrugated) sheets and fluted by Versamount using its worldwide patented manufacturing process.

Clare Burke, the marketing manager of the Sign and Display Division of the Robert Horne Group, commented: "We are very excited to present such an innovative product to the UK sign and display market.

With sheets available for pre-printed graphics or direct to substrate print, Versamount products offer great flexibility for various production methods and end uses, so no matter what print equipment our customers have, Versamount provides them with new profit generating opportunities for a varied selection of display graphic applications, including exhibition graphics, pop-ups, display walls and modular systems.".
