Voice of Customer

Simpsons Printing worked with foam and PVC boards that could pop on and off the walls, allowing the nonprofit museum to reuse materials in the future. One of the biggest project challenges was wrapping a wall already covered with low-VOC paint. Additionally, with the exhibit scheduled to run over six months, floor decorations would have to withstand considerable foot traffic and maintain a like-new appearance.

With its ability to print the whitest white⁴ as well as leverage sustainable, water-based HP Latex inks and odorless prints without hazardous air pollutants⁵, the HP Latex 800 W was the perfect exhibit graphics and exhibit signs printer for the job.

“The unique challenge of this job was telling the story of the 1972 flood in a way that would honor the memories of all who were lost. The goal was to commemorate their memory and to show the resilience of our community over the past 50 years,” says Hayley Kaemingk, design team lead, Simpsons Printing. “The wide-format industry has a unique ability to engage and impact audiences. This expansive project allowed people to immerse themselves in the story being told. The community appreciated it as it was very meaningful and beautifully produced.”
