Networkpak, an Australian folding carton printer, has taken a significant step towards expanding its services to digitally printed labels with the installation of a Screen L350UV SAI S press in collaboration with Jet technologies, Screen’s local distributor.

This strategic investment transitions Networkpak from its traditional focus on folding cartons to include high-quality digital label printing. The new Screen L350UV SAI S press is expected to play a crucial role in this expansion, allowing the company to fulfil the increasing demand for premium labels and packaging.

Paul O'Sullivan, director of Networkpak, said: ‘As a company with deep roots in printed folded cartons, we have earned the trust of leading Australian brands by consistently delivering top-tier products. The addition of the Screen L350UV SAI S to our lineup is a natural progression for us, enabling us to offer an even wider array of solutions to our clients. We can now meet their label and packaging needs with the same level of quality and reliability they've come to expect from our carton work.’

The Screen L350UV SAI S offers Networkpak the flexibility to produce a wide variety of labels, from simple designs to complex, high-impact graphics, catering to the diverse needs of its clientele across various industries.

Jet Technologies Australia, a key partner in this project, has been instrumental in facilitating the installation and ensuring that Networkpak is fully equipped to leverage the capabilities of the new press.

‘Since installation, we have been very impressed with the L350UV SAI S – it has done absolutely everything that we expected and has not skipped a beat. Jet Technologies have been outstanding with their service and support, ensuring that we have made a seamless transition into labels,’ added O'Sullivan.

David Reece, sales director for Jet Technologies, commented: ‘We are delighted to be working with Networkpak. Whilst they may be new in the label space, their team has significant experience in the market and their choice of the L350UV SAI S is a strong endorsement in the brand and our support.’

As Networkpak continues to grow, the integration of the Screen L350UV SAI S is expected to significantly boost the company's production capabilities, reduce lead times, and open up new opportunities for creative packaging.
