Colorscan Imaging Products invests in second EFI Jetrion

The demand for short-run labels, along with the development of new profitable applications, led the company to purchase the Jetrion 4900M with CMYK and white. This will complement its existing Jetrion 4900 which includes inline finishing.

Colorscan Imaging Products purchased its new Jetrion 4900M from specialist supplier Grafitec Label Presses. The modular design of the press means that additional features can be incorporated at a later date, enabling users to customize the machine to specific laser cutting and finishing needs.                                                                                    

‘Colorscan Imaging Products is a great example of a label convertor that keeps growing their digital printing business since choosing an EFI Jetrion printing system,’ said Stephen Emery, vice-president of EFI's ink business and Jetrion. ‘They take advantage of the lean manufacturing this digital label printer provides and capitalize on the increased demand for short runs and versioning. To remain competitive, print companies in this market sector need a reliable platform that gives them true flexibility and high quality, enabling them to profit from shorter runs and greater versatility.’

Colorscan Imaging Products specializes in the UK brewing industry, working with regional and larger companies when they need short run labels. It was the first company in the UK to purchase the EFI Jetrion 4900, and its success is said to have led to a very swift return on investment through a significant increase in profit. The company believes the addition of the Jetrion 4900M will enable the generation of new applications on a wide variety of label stocks, and allow Colorscan to continue capitalizing on the ability to produce short runs and jobs, including versioning, customization and color changes in a fully-digital end-to-end system.
