Printed sheets produced by Hagihara Industries Inc. (President: Kazushi Asano; hereinafter “our Company”) were prominently featured as the EXPO stage background panel at the “Okayama Marathon 2024” held on November 10, 2024.

Our Company has been expanding our printed sheet business with the introduction of UV inkjet printers capable of printing sheets up to 5 meters in width at our Kasaoka Factory, which began full-scale operations in September.

These printers can produce high-quality prints on various materials, including polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, and mesh. They also support full-page graphics up to 5 meters wide, which was not possible with conventional printing methods, and can print text for banners and construction site displays, as well as wall signs and image sheets using image and photo data.

Our clear-printing sheets were recently adopted for the EXPO stage background panels, adding vibrant color to the “Okayama Marathon 2024” stage events and awards ceremony, allowing us to support the runners from the stage.

We will continue to support various events, including the “Okayama Marathon 2024,” by providing printed sheets for a wide range of occasions.
