WASATCH SOFTRIP

A BIG WIN FOR BS2i, ATHEM,
AND THE VENDÉE GLOBE

Wasatch SoftRIP was instrumental in helping BS2i, an extra large-format printer in Honfleur (Normandie - France), wrap France's tallest skyscraper, Tour Maine-Montparnasse. No stranger to the large-format printing industry, BS2i prints 30,000 to 40,000 square meters of graphics every month.

A Huge Success

They were awarded the job to provide large-format printing for The Vendée Globe, the grueling, round-the-world yacht race held every four years, by Athem, a Paris-based company that is well-known for staging brands universally through spectacular creations and ultra large formats.

Excellent Reliability

"For this job, we had to produce 3,900 different pieces of adhesive material to form the 4,000 square meter image," says Janette Cacioppo, General Director of BS2i. "Using Wasatch SoftRIP, we were able to accomplish this without any error. We could not have accomplished this with any other RIP."

Quality and Features

Using a Nur Fresco and SoftRIP's RIP-to-Tiff feature, BS2i was able to flawlessly produce the large quantity of prints required for this huge wrap job. Now BS2i uses Wasatch SoftRIP exclusively for their extensive large-format printing needs. "We are happy with Wasatch SoftRIP and the print quality we achieve," says Janette. "We have tried other RIPs, but Wasatch is the only one that has the features we need."

A Huge Success

This is the first time Tour Maine-Montparnasse has ever been wrapped and the project was a huge achievement. Thanks to these large-scale, high-quality graphics, this job was very successful for Wasatch Computer Technology, BS2i, Athem, and The Vendée Globe.
