Baker Labels buys Screen Truepress Jet L350UV

The UK's Baker Labels has expanded its digital printing capability by investing in a Screen Truepress Jet L350UV inkjet label press, which will complement its existing Nilpeter flexo and HP Indigo digital presses.

The Screen Truepress Jet L350UV, to be installed shortly, is Baker Labels' first foray into inkjet

The new press – the company’s first inkjet device - will be installed in the coming weeks at its Brentwood, Essex facility. Before choosing the Truepress Jet L350UV press with Screen Equios universal workflow, Steve Baker, managing director of Baker Labels, studied the production capacity and printing quality of various machines before making his final decision at Labelexpo Europe 2015. ‘We produce short to medium run labels in the highest quality, very competitively and to tight deadlines so we have to rely on highly efficient presses that deliver maximum uptime and consistent results,’ he said. ‘The new Truepress Jet not only boosts our production capacity considerably but, as a UV inkjet press, it also gives us the ability to produce great quality labels with good light, chemical and water resistance.

‘We have a wide variety of customers with diverse label needs and this latest investment gives us the freedom to choose the best press to produce the best label for a specific application.’

Brian Filler, president of Screen Europe, described Baker Labels as a ‘progressive company’, and said: ‘Its decision to invest in the Truepress Jet inkjet press to complement its existing flexo and digital machines is a significant endorsement of our technology.’
