AGFA Agfa brings SYNAPS media to Canon’s Media Ambassador Programme

Agfa’s SYNAPS synthetic media has joined Canon’s Media Ambassador Programme

Agfa has announced its SYNAPS synthetic media has been officially included in the Canon Media Ambassador Programme.

The media was included in the programme after extensive testing in which it demonstrated excellent ink adhesion, consistent colour density, and smooth running on roll-to-roll Canon Colorado systems.

Canon’s Media Ambassador Programme recognises and promotes leading media partners whose products are extensively tested and optimized for Canon print systems.

Through the program, print service providers (PSPs) can select trusted materials that deliver reliable, superior results on Canon production platforms.

The testing of SYNAPS validates SYNAPS for use with Canon’s Colorado series of large-format printers powered by UVgel inks.

SYNAPS is a high-performance synthetic paper engineered for print applications that demand long-term durability, as its polyester-based construction is tear-proof and water and weather-resistant.

Jolien Staring, product manager SYNAPS at Agfa, said: “The Canon Media Ambassador Programme is a fantastic platform to demonstrate what SYNAPS can do for the visual communication market. We see print providers under pressure to deliver more durable, high-impact work that’s often intended for demanding environments, without compromising sustainability.

“Our collaboration with Canon showcases how SYNAPS brings together the premium image quality, robust performance and circularity-minded design that modern media needs. We are proud to strengthen our partnership with Canon and to support their customers with media that is built to last and engineered for the future of sustainable print.”
