EFI Customers Achieve Lean Label Production with Jetrion 4900 Digital Presses
According to Kirk Icuss, president of CPI, “We first acquired the Jetrion 4830, and then partnered with EFI as an early installation site for the 4900 with the EFI Fiery RIP to unify the color for both machines. The Jetrion presses give us the ability to respond to customer needs in a short time frame without the added cost of plates or dies and we deliver that increased value to our customers.”
CPI is on a lean mission, assisting the company’s customer base of consumer products companies and big-box retailers to reduce SKUs and label inventory and reduce scrap costs. Icuss continues, “In the compliance labeling business, we grade quality by durability of the actual label. UV durability of the EFI inks was a key requirement for us.”
Repacorp
Repacorp Inc. is a full-service print provider with four manufacturing plants located in Ohio, Wisconsin and Arizona. Tony Heinl, vice president of Repacorp, says, “As a company, we constantly look at what we can do to help our distributors increase sales. The answer was definitely adding EFI Jetrion presses to compete in short run process printing. We estimate the short run label market at about 800 million dollars. The addition of our three Jetrion presses immediately made us a force in that market.”
