Xerox iGen 5

Since installing a Xerox iGen 5 in December, Howard Hunt has seen production speed of its marketing documents increase by 25%.

The Kent-based firm had two iGen 4 presses installed in 2013, and will use the fifth colour unit of the iGen 5, which offers orange, green or blue dry ink, to match the range of brand colours required by its customers. 

‘We produce over 500 million packs per year and required a cost effective solution to continue to serve our growing customer base in 2017, said Simon Currid, head of client engagement at Howard Hunt. ‘Since installation, we’ve experienced no downtime despite handling larger print volumes.’

‘Combined with the faster RIP speed, Howard Hunt now has the capacity to process files of varying sizes simultaneously allowing them to take jobs to market faster,’ commented said Andrew Morrison, managing director, Xerox UK and Ireland.
