Label Resources acquires Domino N610i digital press

Label Resources, a Canadian-based label printer converter, has acquired a Domino N610i 7-color digital UV inkjet label press as part of their expansion into a recently purchased state-of-the-art facility in Langley, British Columbia. The Domino N610i is a key component of Label Resources’ growth strategy.

‘Our venture into digital started some seven years ago with a Primera desk-top short run system. Realizing the need for increased production speed and Order Processing Automation, we installed a full Labeltraxx software system and an EFI Jetrion 4950 digital press four years ago. Increasing customer demands with run sizes of 100 to 100,000 feet necessitated more throughput, so increasing the speed by two-and-a-half times with the Domino N610i was an easy decision,’ said Jerry Marincelj, president of Label Resources.

He added: ‘With a color gamut of 92 percent of Pantone colors, Process Metallic Color system and full color Variable Data Print capabilities of up to 246 ft/min, we are sure to dazzle our customers with exceptional quality, service, and affordability like never before.’

‘For the most discerning customers that require additional spot colors, our new ABG finisher will allow a hybrid setup with additional UV or water based colors, foiling, over-laminating, back printing and varnishing. To assure finishing can keep pace with our new Domino, our ABG is equipped with automated back scoring and web separation as well as currently the fastest semi-rotary die station running up to 492 ft/min,’ adds Marincelj.

Label Resources is enthusiastic with the growth they’ve seen in their business over the years. ‘Digital made a significant difference to our traditional flexo business and is without a doubt the most exciting development in our industry’s future - especially when outpacing our flexo growth at a 3:1 ratio,’ he said.
