Dantex strengthens partnership with Spectrum Digital Labels through second PicoJet installation

Digital and conventional printing solutions specialist, Dantex Group, has helped existing customer, Spectrum Digital Labels, expand its digital printing capabilities by adding a second digital press - the impressive PicoJet 1200 DRS with CMYK + white and advanced inline flexo and lamination capabilities. The latest investment highlights the ongoing relationship between the two companies and reinforces Spectrum’s commitment to high-quality digital label and packaging production.

Digital and conventional printing solutions specialist, Dantex Group, has helped existing customer, Spectrum Digital Labels, expand its digital printing capabilities by adding a second digital press - the impressive PicoJet 1200 DRS with CMYK + white and advanced inline flexo and lamination capabilities. The latest investment highlights the ongoing relationship between the two companies and reinforces Spectrum’s commitment to high-quality digital label and packaging production.

 

Following the successful installation of a PicoJet 330 in 2021, which has since produced over 100 million labels, Spectrum wanted to increase its existing capacity while extending its reach into the food packaging sector. The addition of a second press will support this growth by increasing label printing volumes and enabling high-performance printing on film-based packaging materials.

 

Spectrum's decision to invest in a second PicoJet was influenced by its confidence in Dantex's expertise in digital technology, customer service and technical support. Key factors in their choice included enhanced unwind and rewind systems for improved tension stability and additional corona and cooling units. Furthermore, the pre-digital LED flexo station enables flood coat printing and priming, expanding the range of materials Spectrum can process.

 

Commenting on the investment, Joe Preddy, managing director at Spectrum Digital Labels, said: "Our first PicoJet has been a fantastic investment, proving to be an absolute workhorse in production. As our business continues to grow, particularly into new markets such as food packaging, it made complete sense to invest in a PicoJet 1200 DRS. The support we’ve had from Dantex has been first-class throughout.”

 

“Spectrum Digital Labels has been a valued partner for years, and we are delighted to continue supporting their business growth," added Richard Bunney, Dantex’s group managing director. “Their latest investment is a testament to the reliability, performance and quality that our technology delivers. We look forward to seeing them further expand their presence in the food packaging sector.”
