SOS has enjoyed spectacular success with the Roland EU-1000MF flatbed printer in 2025 with the latest installation at Isle of Wight printer Meridian 3.

The 1.2×2.4m UV LED machine with a six-colour configuration was purchased from SOS with the aim of meeting a growing demand for some unusual products.

Baz Smith, MD of Meridian 3, explained that the got into the flatbed market due to a customer’s request for jigsaw puzzles.

He said: “We were delighted when the market took off. We then expanded into producing all kinds of promotional products, especially personalised notebook covers.”

He added: “There are plenty of flatbeds out there, but we liked the look of the Roland which is clearly a high-quality, hi-tech machine from a reliable manufacturer. It’s faster than our old machine, with better software, but also bigger, meaning we can print multiple jigsaws at once.”
