The winners were announced as part of Durst’s Label and Packaging first Virtual Digital Day that also provided insights on the new Tau RSC platform, its printing technologies, ink systems, software and important developments.

Helmuth Munter, Durst’s segment manager for label and flexible packaging, commented: ‘The Tau RSC is a true game changer for us as a company and for all our customers. With that in mind, we challenged them to take part in the Durst RSC Label Masters awards. There were an impressive number of entries. They were all truly inspiring, making it a difficult task for the judges to choose the winners.’

Australia’s R. Wagner Prestige Labels captured the RSC Combination Print category for its Truce Wine of Australia label, while China’s Shandong Golden Realm Industrial Company was runner-up and LabelPrint OÜ of Estonia, third. The 100% RSC Print category winner is Shanghai Yingcai Printing of China, for its Qing Ping Yue entry. Runner-up was again LabelPrint OÜ, with Pyrotec of South Africa in third place.

Together with partners and customers, experts from Durst’s label and flexible packaging segment provided updates on latest developments and an experience of the new Tau RSC platform. Topics covered progress on the Tau RSCi beta test, Durst RSC low migration technology and hybrid label production with the new Omet XJet, powered by Durst. The event also touched on digital embellishment and mid-web finishing topics, with an ABG machine, which is going into operation in Durst’s Customer Experience Center.

‘Since the Durst Tau RSC platform was launched just over three years ago, we have achieved over 100 installations worldwide in less than three years. This demonstrates that our printing solutions have been very well received by the market. We are looking forward to the future despite these uncertain times for everybody,’ concluded Munter.
