German print provider Papier Schäfer has purchased a Truepress Jet L350UV+LM, which will be the first to be installed in Germany.
Set to arrive in December, the Screen press will allow Papier Schäfer to produce a wider range of colours, including oranges, ideal for label production.
‘The time has come for us to invest in the future,’ said CEO Jürgen Schäfer. ‘The ability to offer labels for the food industry with indirect food contact, in combination with the industry leading speeds of up to 60m/min, means investing in the L350UV+LM is an obvious choice to expand our capacity.’
The press, which uses low migration inks, has been engineered to produce premium labels that are compliant with food packaging safety standards.
‘With over half a century’s industry experience, we need to meet the ever-increasing demands of our customers and that requires quality with the quickest turnaround times,’ Schäfer added. ‘As such, it’s imperative that we continue to invest in solutions that ensure we remain at the forefront of the label market. The L350UV+LM will enable us to do just that by expanding our remit into the food labels segment.’
