Limitless Labels to add MPS press

Limitless Labels, a young South African label printing company, is to further its relationship with Rotocon by adding a new MPS press to its factory.

Rotocon will supply the new MPS press after facilitating an investment in K+B screen exposure and mounting equipment at Linerless Labels

Limitless Labels is a new entrant in South Africa's label printing community, and is a family-owned operation founded by Nico Odendaal, the company’s CEO. This one-year-old family-owned business has a stated primary focus to meet the need for very short lead times, and often short runs, most especially for the smaller wine estates.

Limitless Labels already operates a 300mm-wide Nilpeter F280 12-station UV flexo press, featuring 10 colors plus screen printing and hot/cold foiling. This press was originally transferred from a Rako site in Germany to Cape Town's Rako-Tamperseal operation, and later sold to Limitless Labels in a deal facilitated by Rotocon Consulting & Service.  Also facilitated by Rotocon was the recent purchase of Kocher+Beck (K+B) screen exposure and mounting equipment, allowing for in-house production of print-ready screens, using K+B's TecScreen material.

‘We will be purchasing a new MPS press in the not-too-distant future,’ said Limitless Labels managing director Jean van der Walt. ‘We've had nothing but exemplary service from the Rotocon team – with the purchase of the refurbished Nilpeter press, and the installation of the K+B TecScreen system. We'll have no hesitation in ordering the new MPS through Rotocon.’
