Visual Magnetics Adds Fujifilm as Direct Sales Channel

Both Companies to Showcase Visual Magnetics Media at ISA 2012


ORLANDO, FL--(Marketwire - Mar 22, 2012) - ISA 2012 Booth #2846 and #2536 -- To further expand distribution of the revolutionary Visual Magnetics Graphic System™ that matches magnetic-receptive technologies with high-quality print media, FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Systems Division will team with Visual Magnetics® (@VisualMagnetics) as a direct sales and solutions provider in North America for its patented magnetic-receptive graphic system.

The Visual Magnetics Graphic System is a unique large-scale graphics solution that enables the creation of in-store graphics that can be updated effortlessly. It can be tailored to meet a wide array of changeable graphic needs and is also engineered to be ultra-low profile, allowing for multi-layering of the image while giving the seamless appearance of a single layer print.

"We are very pleased to add Fujifilm to our esteemed North American Sales Channels," said Joe Deetz, president of Visual Magnetics. "In addition to being able to distribute our products for use with third-party hardware, the company is also uniquely poised to offer Visual Magnetics' media profiled for optimum results with Fujifilm-brand printers. We think our customers will see very positive results from this distribution partnership."

"At Fujifilm, our goal is to maximize synergies with other members of the Fujifilm group and utilize our resources efficiently to achieve healthy growth," said Terry Amerine, program manager, wide format media at Fujifilm North America Corporation, Graphic Systems Division. "Visual Magnetics has a unique and exciting product, and we are looking forward to offering the Visual Magnetics Graphic System to our customers who are looking for the innovative display solution this system provides."

The Visual Magnetics system components include ActiveWall® Micro-Iron™ wall primer, MagnaMedia® Micro-Iron coated print media, and InvisiLock® custom engineered sheet magnet, which may be applied to virtually any surface, incorporated into frames and fixtures, or simply applied to wall surfaces. Once InvisiLock is applied, users can easily roll graphics printed on any MagnaMedia to achieve instant, high-quality signage and displays. Visual Magnetics' MagnaMedia is so thin that when combined with the properties of the InvisiLock magnet, it is possible to create multi-layer graphics to update images instantly for specific promotions, without the use of frames, fasteners or adhesives.

The Visual Magnetics Graphic System™ will be displayed at ISA 2012 this week in Visual Magnetics' booth #2846. Fujifilm will also be displaying a Visual Magnetics-interactive wall in their booth (#2536), which will feature samples of popular MagnaMedia including VM-Canvas™ 22, an award-winning product from the MagnaMedia Digital Fabric Collection.
