Northern Label redefines production with Bobst Digital Master 340

Northern Label Group, one of the leading label printers in Canada serving the health, beauty and personal care markets, has taken a leap forward in its digital printing capabilities by investing in a Bobst Digital Master 340.

Founded in 2004 by Sean Murray and Don Rees, Northern Label initially made its mark with an 8-color, 10-inch UV flexo press. The decision to integrate the Bobst Digital Master 340 into the company’s production line marks a new era by enhancing speed, automation and overall quality with an all-in-one platform.

Designed for high productivity, the Digital Master 340, prints at speeds up to 328 ft/min with a resolution of 1,200x1,200 DPI, utilizing Bobst’s proprietary digital inkjet technology.

With the acquisition of the new press, Northern Label has elevated its production efficiency and quality, allowing it to better serve clients ranging from global brands to smaller, local businesses.

The automation capabilities minimize downtime and maintenance, while its print speed and quality enable Northern Label to meet demanding customer requirements. Another significant advantage is the ability to incorporate new modules to the Digital Master 340, allowing Northern Label to evolve and adapt the machine as their customers’ requirements change.

Sean Murray, president of Northern Label, commented: “The Digital Master 340 has truly transformed our production capabilities. It’s not just about increasing our speed and efficiency; it’s about consistently delivering the high-quality labels our clients expect. Partnering with Bobst has been a strategic move that aligns perfectly with our commitment to innovation and excellence.’

Matt Bennett, zone business director for Bobst in the USA and Canada, added: ‘Northern Label’s dedication to quality and customer satisfaction aligns perfectly with our own values at Bobst. We are thrilled to support their growth and innovation with our Digital Master 340 All-In-One solution, and we look forward to seeing how this partnership will continue to evolve and push the boundaries of digital label printing.’
