Label Solutions Inc., based in Garland TX, partnered with Durst to become the first in Texas to add the digital specialist's 1200dpi UV inkjet technology to its portfolio.
“We tested a lot of files on a lot of materials and decided that with the Durst Tau RSC-E, we are able to print on a wide range of substrates at very high quality while improving production costs on short/medium runs,” said Chris Merlick, founder and CEO of Label Solutions.
“With a focus on specialty custom solutions and the addition of a Durst Tau RSC-E, Label Solutions truly stands apart as a premier provider of labels and packaging solutions,” added Steve Lynn, director of label and packaging for Durst North America.
The Durst RSC-E operates at speeds of up to 170 fpm (upgradeable to 262 fpm) with 1200dpi native resolution and available with up to eight colors. Durst RSC high opacity white ink delivers a smooth white, which is ideal for printing on metallic and clear materials.
“We were farming out our digital print offerings to external suppliers before, and we knew we wanted UV inkjet when we brought our digital book of business internally,” said Merlick. “It was all about becoming more efficient. The RSC print quality means that we can offer more sophisticated premium work, particularly being easier to hit brand colors with the expanded color gamut of the Durst RSC.”
