    Hello folks looking for a company that can take my roll of 1370mm material and convert it so that i can use it on my gerber edge?

    Hexis – No – Can but Not there material so no.
    Sign and digital dublin – No machines for doing it
    Spandex – waiting on feedback on this as have to go through an agent to speak to anyone at spandex

    Any ideas ?

    Is this a material that no one else offers for the Edge?

    What is special about this material?

    If I understand your question you want it sliced and punched to run through the Edge, correct?

    Tim why do you have to go through an agent for spandex?
    I have just spoken to Spandex with the same query as I have some vinyl that has been flood coated a very odd colour. At first they said no as the product is not from them but as they cannot supply this colour I am sending them a sample and they are going to come back to me.

    I’m guessing if your vinyl is a standard colour that Spandex supply then you may get a no from them as well.

    But that depends how well you get on with them.

    If you live in Northern Ireland then you need to go through Dennis Evans In Belfast if you want to speak to anyone at spandex, I cannot speak to them directly, also a nightmare on delivery as it has to go to them first and then re post to me , extra day or two waiting if your in a rush, This is a roll of PVC and I have been researching it for 2 years , Its the only material that I have been able to get that I can print on , Tried about 20 different samples from all the UK companies that I could think of with no joy, none of them what I’m after.

    Have patched in pieces of vinyl onto edge sprocket previously for small amounts,obviously not time efficient if you want lots to run
