Taiwanese printer adds digital to its portfolio with Xeikon 3030 Plus press

CymMetrik produces labels for the food and beverage, health and beauty, and industrial sectors, as well as producing transfer films for plastic decoration applications. It operates manufacturing bases in both Taiwan and China, and has sales offices in Hong Kong and the US to serve its global customer base.

At its Taipei production plant, the company has seen market demand moving trend towards flexible short-run jobs that require faster turnaround and delivery. It operates letterpress and screen printing equipment in Taipei, which will now be complemented by digital.

Xeikon has planned a two-step pre-installation training program for CymMetrik. A theoretical and hands-on introduction training has already been conducted for CymMetrik at the Xeikon Demo center in Chicago. This will be followed by an advanced training session at the Xeikon headquarters in Brussels.

A spokesperson for CymMetrik said: ‘For us, it is strategically important to start with digital printing. After evaluation of the different options on the market, it was clear that the best entry level equipment that could help us access this new market segment is a Xeikon press.’

‘The most important feature for us was the Xeikon 3030 Plus’s ability to use substrates that do not need a special coating and are readily available on the market, making it very convenient for our business.’
