The UK digital label leader is the largest digital printer in Europe to use Xeikon technology and has continued to grow 20% year-on-year. This next investment comes swiftly after the last announcement in March this year, when the company invested another six-figure sum, created an extra four jobs and increased capacity by 25%.
The finishing machine was designed and specified by CS Labels. It was commissioned due to an increase in demand for digital peel and reveal labels, which CS Labels already produce on an existing machine.
Peel and reveal labels are popular as they enable clients print a large amount of information, instructions or different language translations on to a label where space is limited.
“We listen to our customer base closely, and are already catering for most of their needs as regards peel and reveal labels,” said managing director Simon Smith. “This new investment adds an extra layer of icing to the cake and responds to their needs. Customers like the labels as they know they can fit more information in a smaller space, such as a multitude of languages, sales promotions, instructions and much more. When you combine these factors with the advantages of digital labelling in general – such as the option of shorter print runs, less stock holding (less waste), fast turnaround times, lack of plates or unwieldy origination, better environmental factors and the opportunity to personalise labels or ranges of labels due to each label effectively being inherently unique – the end piece of packaging can be very powerful.”
