Hirsch to Unveil New Embroidery Machine at ISS Long Beach

January 16, 2012

Hirsch Intl., Hauppauge, N.Y., will debut its Tajima Sumo large-format embroidery machine at the Imprinted Sportswear Shows (ISS) Long Beach event, which will take place Jan. 20-22 in Long Beach, Calif.

Designed specifically to handle oversized designs on jackets backs, blankets, banners and more, the Sumo uses a 23" x 23" hoop. This makes it possible to not only sew on oversized jackets, jerseys and fleece with giant designs or appliqué, but it also allows users to embroider home decorations, such as tablecloths, table runners, curtains, bedspreads and more. In addition, this machine can handle large tote bags and luggage, banners, blankets, wall hangings and more.

As part of the Sumo launch, Byambajav Ulambayar, a three-time world champion sumo wrestler will be on hand to sign autographs and take photos. He will be in the Hirsch booth 1011 and walking the floor all day on Friday and Saturday to meet with attendees.
