Digital Plus prints 'Clever Cube' for local play production

Yorkshire printer Digital Plus has done its bit to promote a local production of The Secret Garden by producing a 'Clever Cube' on its Oc Arizona 350 XT flatbed.

The Bramley-based digital printer produced the 1,500mm advertisement for the West Yorkshire Playhouse on its £200,000 machine, which was installed last year.

Owen Russell, director of Digital Plus, said: "The investment we have made in our new print equipment means we can deliver just what our clients want and really think outside the box, using our creativity to the full.

"The Secret Garden project has been a delight to work on and we hope many families will enjoy the giant cube and the show."

The company's Océ Arizona 350 XT, which was flown over from Canada last year, can print on a bed up to 3,050x2,500mm.

The flatbed is specified with a white ink option that gives Digital Plus the ability to print directly onto substrates such as MDF, aluminium, acrylics, PVC, glass, plastic and sheet metal.

Nick Boaden, head of marketing at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, said: "When Digital Plus approached us about creating a massive design based on The Secret Garden we understood straightaway how this could work for our business, but the result has far exceeded my expectations."
