C5 Design of Mexico has installed and tested the first Xeikon 3050 digital press combined with DCoat

C5 Design – sister company of E4, a leading producer of hand soaps and antibacterial gels for both Mexico and abroad – was set up to handle all the company’s internal label requirements. This mainly involves just-in-time deliveries of both smaller and bigger label run lengths.

To suit this production environment, a 50cm-wide Xeikon 3050 digital press fitted with a Xeikon DCoat 500 converting unit including a laser cutter has been installed.

Jorge Gonzáles, owner of C5 Design, said: ‘Xeikon simply did a better job in understanding our needs and was the only digital supplier providing an integrated, productive solution.

‘We were very fond of their approach as a total solution provider, including the appropriate financing package. Xeikon perfectly reflects all of our core values depicted in our name where the 5 C’s in Spanish stand for creativity, knowledge, quality, commitment and determination.’
