At Labelexpo 2015, HP Indigo showcased labels and packaging portfolio innovation, including new product features and upgrade packages, software enhancements for mass customization, as well as new financing options. These new innovations allow more customers to capitalize on the growing digital opportunity in a market where they are already achieving 30% page growth year over year.
“With mounting pressure from brands to deliver differentiated, high-quality labels and packaging at faster and faster turnaround times, converters and PSPs are constantly looking for new avenues for growth and expansion,” said Alon Bar-Shany, VP and GM, Indigo Division, HP. “New HP Indigo cross-portfolio innovations, including breakthrough color management and higher productivity and versatility, allow our customers to remain a step ahead of the market, time and time again.”
HP is demonstrating new HP Indigo WS6800 digital press innovations, boosting color capabilities and productivity. New features include:
• Color Automation Package, a new, best-in-class digital color matching solution that uses the press’ inline spectrophotometer and new HP Indigo Labels and Packaging Print Server capabilities powered by Esko, offering converters a quick and easy process to match brand spot colors from the first label to the last.
• A new HP ElectroInk Fade Resistant Ink set, enabling high-value applications with high light-fastness for use outdoors.
• Enhanced media versatility, ease of use and lower cost of operation with the new Michelman DP680 Primer.
• Integration with industry leading digital workflow solutions.
• HP SmartStream Designer integration with security solutions to create microtext variable data printing (VDP), anti-counterfeit QR codes, dynamic guilloche and end-to-end track and trace solutions.
The industry’s best-selling narrow-web press series, the HP Indigo WS6000 digital press series now boasts installations in more than 60 countries with an installed base nearly doubling over the past two years.
Marking the 1,000th HP Indigo WS6000 series press purchase worldwide, Italian worldwide group EUROSTAMPA is adding a fifth press to their HP Indigo narrow-web portfolio with an HP Indigo WS6800 Digital Press, to produce custom labels for wine and liquor brands.
New upgrade packages for the HP Indigo 20000 and 30000 digital presses extend the presses’ media gamut and deliver improved quality, efficiency and productivity:
