Gráficas Ochoa, based in northern Spain, has recently become one of the first printers in the country to invest in the Jet Press 720S, Fujifilm’s flagship B2 inkjet press.
The company is committed to innovation and respect for the environment and the Jet Press 720S, utilizing Fujifilm Dimatix printheads and water-based VIVIDIA inks, generates less waste and is more environmentally friendly than rival toner-based technologies. The investment has also allowed Graficas Ochoa to bring more work in-house and manage the quality and delivery of its products directly, without the need for outsourcing.
Graficas Ochoa has come a long way since 1915, when the Ochoa family first established a small print shop and general bookstore in the city of Logroño. More than a century later, that small shop has been transformed into a major business, producing a huge range of products – from catalogs, flyers and stickers, to books, stationery and magazines as well as a range of packaging and signage solutions.
“Our company has been able to adapt its production processes to the continuous technological changes in the printing industry,” said company co-owner Irene Ochoa. “We have always kept abreast of the latest technological developments and looked for the best opportunities to invest in systems that will help us meet our objectives. The Jet Press 720S represents just such an investment.
“After a few tests, we could clearly see that there was a significant difference in quality between the Jet Press 720S and other technologies on the market and importantly, we saw that it matched our objectives and business philosophy in terms of our environmental practices. The reduced waste from inkjet compared with toner-based rival machines was a significant factor in our decision-making process.”
