Industry experts discuss digital finishing

Domino has released the second video in a series of informative discussions where a panel of label industry experts explore the different types of job structure are best suited to off-line, in-line and full hybrid digital printing. 

In the video, label converters representatives from Reynders, Skanem, Germark, Olympus Group, Anglia Labels, CS Labels and Dan Labels discuss the dilemma of ‘agility versus productivity and cost minimization.’ Based on their knowledge and experience, they advise how to select the best finishing options for different types of jobs that have been digitally printed. 

Philip Easton, director of Domino Digital Printing Solutions, sayid: ‘The trend for reduced lead times and more SKUs continues, driving down the average length of production runs, as brand owners request more product versions. At the same time, they are looking more closely at ways to reduce waste both for cost and sustainability reasons and placing greater emphasis on their supply chains to reduce inventory and limit the risk of obsolescence.’

‘Digital printing plays a large part in this process, but to meet the demands of their customers,’ added Easton. ‘Label converters must also consider the choice of finishing technology used in terms of automation, productivity and flexibility.’
