Xeikon 3500 in ‘World First’ In-Mold Production

Dutch printer aL Printing has secured its place in the graphic arts history book by becoming the first to implement the recently launched Xeikon In-Mold Label Suite, which consists of the Xeikon 3000 series of digital presses, substrates, software and finishing hardware.
 
aL Printing specializes in producing self-adhesive labels, flexible packaging and in-mold labels at its Reusel plant in the Netherlands, where a new Xeikon 3500 digital color press has joined an impressive line up of flexo presses.
 
“The enormous flexibility offered by the Xeikon 3500, which we use to print self-adhesive and In-Mold labels, has opened up a host of opportunities for our customers,” said commercial director Bart Lavrijsen. “Typically these are brand owners in the retail, food and beverage industries, as well as the oil derivative sectors.“
