Paramount Label installs Vinsak offset printer

Paramount Label Printing Press, an adhesive labels manufacturer in UAE, has installed a TR3 offset printing system from Vinsak, a regional packaging supplier and the sole distributor of Iwasaki.

Ranesh Bajaj, director, Vinsak, said: ‘Paramount is already using a 9-color Lombardi flexo press for printing its long-run production of labels and flexibles and they are fully equipped with their pre-press facilities for quick turnaround and in most cases, they can offer same day delivery, which even digital presses fail to do.’

Sadiq Ali, managing director, Paramount Label Printing Press said: ‘For the middle east market there has been an increased demand for short-run labels, the production cost on digital presses continues to be extremely high and finishing online is a challenge. The Iwasaki press offers the lowest print cost in square meters for short and medium runs up to 5000 square meters. Being an intermittent press, it requires no tooling for changing repeat sizes, hence giving extremely fast turnarounds and lower costs.’

‘The technology installed for Paramount is the Iwasaki TR3 waterless offset model with 6 colors waterless offset with 6 units of UV dryers, one flexo varnishing station and one semi-rotary die-cut unit to produce barcodes, destructible and tamper-evident labels, location and aisle board labels, color-coded labels for various industries with a maximum print width of 330 mm. The combined process of printing and finishing ensure the fastest delivery possible with the lowest origination as well as running costs,’ Ali concluded.
