AGI-Shorewood Group (ASG) has signed on as an HP Indigo 30000 digital press launch customer and will also install an HP Indigo 5500 digital press this year.
The new presses will bolster the company’s existing digital packaging services from design to production, helping the company meet customer demand for dynamic and innovative paperboard packaging.
‘HP Indigo, with its high print quality, variable data capability and speed, gives us a digital platform that will make us more competitive by expanding our service offerings with high value digital package production,’ said Mark Caines, CEO Americas.
‘Once the new HP Indigo digital presses are in place, our customers will experience immediate benefits with product packaging design and production. Our customers are excited about the possibilities with creating innovative, complex and specialised packaging for their products,’ Mr Caines added.
Both the Indigo 30000 and Indigo 5500 will be installed at the company’s facility in Toronto, Canada. With the new presses, it will offer its customers advanced proofing, as well as creative and product development services that include package design, development, prototyping and market sampling.
Compatible with existing offset printing presses used for mainstream folding carton applications, the Indigo 30000 will offer customers new value-added packaging options and introduce a solution for economical printing of short- to medium-run jobs.
