InfoLabel orders first US Gallus Labelfire 340

Mark Dufort, president of InfoLabel, previewed the press at the Heidelberg Digital Forum in June 2015, and subsequently at the Gallus plant in St. Gallen Switzerland.

‘Our investment in the Gallus Labelfire 340 will allow us to provide our customers with exceptional quality, shorter lead times, and lower costs,' he said..

‘The first thing that caught my attention was the run speeds – three times faster than my existing digital presses, and no click charges. Also, the Gallus Labelfire 340 easily handles eight colors instead of seven, giving me a lot of flexibility.’

The Gallus Labelfire 340 is an in-line press, incorportating digital, flexo, cold foil, rotary screen and die-cutting. ‘Plus, the Gallus Labelfire 340 can print flexo white or digital white depending on label design needs, with no slowdown of press speeds,’ added Dufort.

‘When it comes to meeting the needs of our customers and target markets, InfoLabel has always tried to stay in front with sound investments in printing and finishing equipment. Our investments in digital printing began almost eight years ago, and with the latest investment in the Gallus Labelfire 340, we are confident in our ability to strengthen our product offering.’
