Barcodes West (BCW) has invested in a series of Colordyne Technologies' (CDT) technologies over the last 26 months as it looks to take advantage of the scalability they offer.

This has included CDT Production Class digital printing presses, with BCW first buying an entry-level printing system, the CDT 1600-PC Sprint, then adding rotary die-cut finishing and converting it to a CDT 1600-PC Rotary Pro. It has now transitioned to laser die-cut finishing with a CDT 2600-PC Laser Pro.

‘BCW saw a great opportunity to expand our digital print offerings with the high resolution and fast speed of the Colordyne Production Class line,’ said Glenn Allen, general manager of BCW.

‘We have been digital in one form or another for over 25 years. With our demanding customer base, we always have to be on the look-out for better, faster and unique printing and converting technologies. The Colordyne Production Class is that technology.

‘The Laser Pro's ability to add high-end color graphics and high density variable barcodes at the quick speeds of the Colordyne equipment keeps us in a great position to expand our offerings for our customers.’

Gary Falconbridge, president and chief executive officer of CDT, added: ‘Barcodes West took a somewhat unique approach with its adoption of Colordyne technology as it has been able to gradually increase its investment in the technology while simultaneously realizing increased revenue and bottom line profitability.

‘With the recent transition to the CDT 2600-PC Laser Pro, it has acquired an even stronger platform for Colordyne digital technology going forward.’
