Accu-Label maximizes productivity with Durst Tau RSCi

Accu-Label was co-founded 33 years ago in Fort Wayne, Indiana, by David Manning Jr, who started the label printing company in his garage. From the beginning, he focused on producing high quality labels and providing personalized customer service.                             

‘Creating custom labels at Accu-Label is more than just a job for us. It’s a calling. For over 30 years, we’ve been answering that call by investing into the foundation of our business,’ said Manning. ‘Quality and service is the core of our business. That means giving our customers superior service and the highest quality product, with family-centered culture to back it up. We’re proud to service both local and national customers.’

‘Positioning is everything in the label market and you have to set yourself apart from others, to stay on the cutting edge of this industry,’ added Catie Manning-Ewald, creative and marketing director for Accu-Label commenting on reasoning behind the new investment.

With the latest investment Accu-Label is expecting to respond to complex client demands quicker, optimize its production processes, provide expansion into new market segments, while meeting high level flexo-like quality output. 

‘We chose Durst because they really understood our business needs,’ comments David Manning. ‘Yes, speed was a big consideration, but we needed more. We are a company that is devoted to providing the best quality product and a high level of service. For us, it doesn’t matter how fast a press prints, if we can’t deliver a quality product. We felt the Durst RSCi gave us both speed and exceptional quality compared to other digital printing technologies currently available on the market. We see the RSCi as the best complement to our flexo process.’

Steve Lynn, director and general manager of New Markets, Durst North America, said: ‘We are delighted that Accu-Label has selected Durst to be its platform of choice. We are very excited to be an integral part of their production process and look forward to building a working relationship built on innovation and common goals.’

Manning is confident that the Tau RSCi is the critical component to continuing Accu-Label’s expansion. 

‘Adding the Durst RSCi digital label press will be vital in meeting customer expectations and requirements, now and in the future. The speed and throughput of the Tau RSCi will really help to cultivate our customer base as well as the efficiency of our production workflow, giving us the ability to handle the longer runs that produces total cost-efficiency,’ concluded Manning.
