Epson completes construction of innovation centre

March 4, 2020

Innovation Centre Building B

Seiko Epson Corporation has completed construction work on a new four-story facility (Innovation Centre Building B) on the campus of its Hirooka Office in Nagano Prefecture, Japan.

Innovation Centre Building B has a total floor area of 39,634 m² and construction began in the autumn of 2018. The first and second floors will house digital inkjet textile printer prototype production and volume production operations along with a digital printing solutions exhibition area. The third and fourth floors will be office space.

Preparations are under way for an April start to operations. The new facility is designed to reinforce the company’s research and development capabilities and production technology in the growing textile printing space. It will also increase the strength and efficiency of business operations by consolidating printing solutions business operations, Epson added.

Epson, which identified textile printing as a growth area in its Epson 25 Corporate Vision, seeks to drive a shift away from traditional plate-based analogue printing of textiles and toward a digital printing environment that offers both high productivity and a smaller environmental footprint.

To accelerate this shift, Epson is installing prototype production and volume production systems for digital inkjet textile printers in Innovation Centre Building B while simultaneously reinforcing its R&D and production engineering organisations in this area.

Epson said the facility will also have an exhibition area and a space for viewing the assembly process. These, Epson believes, will help to strengthen customer touch points and expand sales in the textile printing segment.

Epson will increase the efficiency of its printing solutions business operations by consolidating in the Innovation Centre and adjacent offices the departments involved in functions such as strategy, sales and marketing, development, design, and production engineering.

Epson will broaden the world of digital printing and further accelerate inkjet innovation by continuing to refine its technology and provide outstanding products and services built around original core devices.
