Print and apply labeling specialist Industrial Labelling Systems (ILS) has completed 20 years in 2022.

Its portfolio of products includes pallet labelers, outer case and tray labelers, large character inkjet marking, and barcode inspection and validation systems. In addition, the business manufactures a range of plain labels and print consumables.  
 
From its original small office in Rochdale, ILS now operates from an 11,000sqft facility in Middleton, near Manchester. As well as the company’s extensive UK customer base, which features leading names such as ASOS and Adidas, sales have extended across the world to Europe, the USA, South Africa and Australasia.   
 
Central to ILS’s success has been the ability to deliver customized products. Its fully integrated machines deliver fast and reliable performance for every application and are designed to provide maximum safety and protection for users. In addition, all ILS machines are supported by a network of service engineers to ensure comprehensive after-sales backup.  
 
Alongside its wide range of machines, ILS’s in-house label manufacturing facility produces plain white label stock and LPN (license plate number) labels for the fashion industry. Together with the availability of consumables such as ink and thermal transfer ribbons, this provides a single-source supply for customers’ print and labeling requirements.  
 
‘We pride ourselves on a fast-response and personalized service, with a consultative approach to every new inquiry,’ explained ILS’s managing director Denis Brett. ‘Our longstanding expertise and experience mean we can identify the most appropriate solution and tailor it accordingly.’  
 
Most recently ILS has enjoyed success with its FlexWipe pallet labeling system, the machine that is capable of operating in sub-zero temperatures down to -28 degrees Celsius as standard without the need for insulation or heating cabinet.  
 
‘We are very proud of our 20th anniversary milestone and what we have achieved to date. With our committed team and the wealth of knowledge that they offer, we look forward to continuing our journey and to further successes in the future,’ Brett concluded.
