Xeikon announces that U.S.-based Action Packaging Systems, Inc. is the second North American and the fifth worldwide pilot site for Xeikon Cheetah technology.
Xeikon’s newest digital label press based on Cheetah technology -the Xeikon CX3- will complement Action Packaging’s existing production platform which includes a Xeikon 3500 digital press as well as flexographic printing solutions.
Action Packaging selected the Xeikon CX3 to support its mission of providing high quality products within exceptionally fast turnaround times to its customers. The press offers outstanding speed (98 ft/min or 30m/min).
Action Packaging was established in 1979 with a mission to change the paradigm of label production: deliver labels in maximum five days or less.
This creates a highly demanding business model, but it has its rewards. Last year, the company had double-digit revenue growth, and Douglas E. Rice, president and CEO of Action Packaging, expects an even higher growth rate this year.
“Our customer base continues to grow. We can only make sure to continue meeting the ever more challenging deadlines and client demands when working with fast and reliable production machines that can follow the fast pace of our business,” said Rice.
The Xeikon CX3 will complement the current flexo and digital production fleet at Action Packaging to support its growth with additional production capacity. It will also give the company greater flexibility to shift more short-run jobs from flexo to digital production, increasing cost-efficiency and productivity.
