Today, we’re excited to share a major step forward in our capabilities: the installation of our brand-new 16ft wide EFI VUTEk Q5r, one of the most advanced roll-to-roll printers in North America.
This machine isn’t just an upgrade—it’s a complete expansion of what’s possible.
Let us show you how we THINK BIG.
Why the EFI VUTEk Q5r Changes Everything
The Q5r is a powerhouse built for precision, speed, and versatility. Whether you're ordering billboards, banners, building wraps, event signage, or long-run production, this machine elevates every job with consistent, high-definition results.
⚡ Blazing Speed for Tight Deadlines
The Q5r is engineered to move fast without compromising quality. High-volume projects that once took days can now be completed in a fraction of the time. This means quicker turnarounds, more capacity, and the flexibility to say YES to even the most last-minute opportunities.
🎯 Ultra-Sharp Quality, Every Single Time
Equipped with genuine 7-picoliter UltraDrop™ technology, the Q5r delivers incredibly crisp text, smooth gradients, and photorealistic detail. It’s a machine built for brands that don’t settle for “good enough”—and neither do we…
🎨 Expanded Color Capabilities
The Q5r supports a wide ink gamut, including white ink, allowing for multilayer printing, vibrant colour accuracy, and stunning opacity on clear or specialty materials. It also features matte and gloss varnish overlay capabilities, giving your prints an elevated, premium finish with tactile and visual dimension.
🛡️ Durable, High-Performance Output
EFI’s inks are designed for long-term outdoor durability. From harsh winters to blazing summers, your graphics stay bold, sharp, and fade-resistant—perfect for Alberta’s cold and unpredictable weather.
💵 More Efficiency. Less Waste. Saving YOU Costs.
One of the biggest strengths of the Q5r is how it transforms our production workflow behind the scenes. With built-in inline finishing options, automated quality control, and faster curing, we’re able to reduce material waste, streamline production, and keep costs competitive for our clients.

Building wraps & banners
Large scale banners in a single piece (up to 16ft wide)
