Maestri Etichette has acquired a Screen Truepress Jet L350UV SAI E, its first digital inkjet press for consistent growth and a strategic decision to expand in digital printing. The label specialist, based in the northern Italian province of Brescia, relies on inkjet technology to meet demand for increasingly varied and smaller print runs for its customers in the food, personal care, chemicals, and pharma sectors. 

‘We want to be recognized for reliability, quality and professionalism – and the Screen press helps us achieve exactly that,’ said Moreno Maestri, owner and sales manager of Maestri Etichette. The Screen press provides the print quality and flexibility Maestri requires. ‘We built our reputation on responding flexibly to customers’ demand. One of our strongest qualities, flexibility is key to consistent growth. And even in the difficult Covid-year of 2021, it helped us achieve 9 percent revenue growth.’  

In selecting and installing the Screen Truepress Jet L350UV SAI E, Maestri was supported by Screen’s Italian representative REM. Led by Ettore Maretti, REM provided the technical and economic conditions to enable this new installation, Maestri said. As its partner, REM has been at the forefront of a rapid expansion of digital inkjet printing in the Italian market, installing many Screen presses over the past few years.  

The Screen Truepress Jet L350UV SAI series offers improved color reproduction as well as scalability. Maestri Etichette expects that its focus on innovative technology will lead to additional investments in digital inkjet printing technology in the next few years.
