Grupo Grafico, a leading provider of printing and visual communication solutions, has upgraded its production line with a Fujifilm Acuity Prime L to improve turnaround times, increase print quality, and meet the growing needs of its customers.
Founded in 1994, Grupo Grafico employs 14 staff and offers a comprehensive service that extends beyond production, including printing and visual communication. The company manufactures a variety of products – from signage to personalised packaging – catering to a diverse range of customers.
Oscar Ramon, Commercial Director at Grupo Grafico, comments: “The Acuity Prime L was installed in the first 
quarter of 2024. We invested in this machine to handle a higher volume of work, reduce delivery times, and improve product quality. That was exactly our focus, and it was clear that the Acuity Prime L offered all of this. We were able to test it several times with our team using real jobs, and we unanimously agreed we wanted this machine in our facility.”
Grupo Grafico has been operating for over 30 years and is committed to staying competitive through continuous investment in the latest technology. Mr Ramon adds, “We always try to stay well-informed about equipment and materials. Much of our work involves short runs, where every second counts. With the Acuity Prime L, we saw that job changes and subsequent printing were extremely fast, and the print quality is excellent. Beyond the gains in speed and drying, it’s a pleasure to watch it operate: fast, reliable, and quiet.”
With customers demanding increasingly fast turnaround times and high-quality products, Mr Ramon explains that the combination of speed and quality offered by the Acuity Prime L is crucial in helping to meet those demands. “It’s enabled us to substantially improve production efficiency,” he says. “Thanks not only to its speed, but also due to the zone-based production functionality for small-format jobs, which allows for tighter deadlines and longer runs.”
Large-format signage production has also become more efficient, resolving previous challenges with tight delivery schedules, Mr Ramon says: “Large-format signage was a bit of a challenge for us due to tight delivery deadlines, we often had to work overtime to meet them. Now, we operate more calmly. That’s the main production benefit.”
Grupo Grafico’s design and creative clients have provided overwhelmingly positive feedback after testing the machine with their own projects, and the team has also praised the Acuity Prime L for how easy it is to use, with intuitive operation, good reliability, simple user interface, clever machine design, and ease of ink changes. Mr Ramon says: “It’s on another level, that’s the phrase we’ve heard most from the staff using it. The ease-of-use stands out as the machine is very intuitive and reliable. The user interface is pleasant to work with, structurally the machine is well-built – and it looks good too! Furthermore, everything is easily accessible, and ink changes are simple.”
Grupo Grafico praised Fujifilm’s support throughout the sales and installation process, highlighting their professionalism and commitment to providing effective solutions.
With the Acuity Prime L in place, Grupo Grafico is well-positioned to expand its client base, deliver even faster service, and continue its growth in the competitive visual communications market.
Joan Casas, Manager, Fujifilm Graphic Communication, Spain, comments: “This installation is part of Fujifilm’s ongoing commitment to the large format sector, and we’re excited to see Grupo Grafico take full advantage of the Acuity Prime L’s capabilities. We believe this will be a valuable asset for their business moving forward and Fujifilm is proud to partner with them in this important step.”
Xavier Mari, Commercial Director at Global Managing, a key distribution partner for Fujifilm, comments, “We recognised Grupo Grafico’s need for a high performance, versatile printing solution, and the Fujifilm Acuity Prime L was the ideal fit. Its speed, quality, and ease of use will undoubtedly empower them to meet growing market demands and enhance their production capabilities. We are proud to have facilitated this important acquisition.”
