Visual Connections has advised the industry to reach out to the association should their businesses be in need and require some assistance.

These businesses can be those affected by natural disasters, COVID-19 disruptions, machine breakdowns, supply chain issues, business closures, quarantines and other factors.  

Visual Connections CEO Peter Harper said, “The past couple of years, we have lurched from fires to pandemics and now flooding across many areas of Australia.

“If you or your business has been affected, we’re here to lend a hand. You can go to our online Register for Assistance any time to see what supports your suppliers can offer or contact them directly to explain what you need.”

Visual Connections added that it is reaching out to help as it believes that it is a time for the industry to pull together and assist in any way to ensure everyone can get through this difficult time.

As part of this assistance, it has created a register of interested members and non-members of the association who are willing to collaborate and share resources with other members.

Some of the Visual Connections members that have already put their hands up to help and be included in this register include Alfex Laser’s Christian Buhagiar, Ball & Doggett’s Tony Bertrand, Böttcher Australia’s Mitchell Mulligan, Colour Graphic Services’ David Crowther, Durst Oceania’s Matt Ashman, Europoles’ Peter Wagener, Mutoh Australia’s Russell Cavenagh, and Pozitive’s Phil Trumble, amongst others.

The full register can ne accessed here.
