Managing director David Webster with the new Durst press
The Label Makers in the UK will be the first beta site for Durst’s Tau 330 RSC label press.
Testing is set to start at the company’s premises in Bradford, Yorkshire, in October.
‘Becoming the first customer to install the Tau 330 RSC is [a] huge step for us,’ said managing director David Webster. ‘I definitely see the future of label production as inkjet. A major attraction of getting a third Tau 330 is its increase in printing speed to 78m/min. Another is a big jump in quality with twice the resolution at 1200 x 1200dpi, plus the addition of the extra colour green. This means we can cover 98% of Pantone shades.’
‘We are proud and excited to announce that The Label Makers will be the first company to benefit from this new and game-changing technology,’ commented Helmuth Munter, segment manager, Durst label & package printing.
