Vebraco acquires Screen inkjet label printer

Dutch label specialist Vebraco has acquired a Screen Truepress Jet L350 UV inkjet press to facilitate further growth, resolve a capacity challenge, and bring flexibility in label printing to a higher level. 

Marcel Bulten, Vebraco’s managing director, said: ‘Our customers tell us they appreciate our flexibility and speed of delivery, so when we ran into a capacity problem, struggling to meet growing demand, we needed a solution that would enable us to maintain our high standards. A consistent high print quality was a prerequisite, one that was satisfied by Screen’s digital inkjet label press – so far our new L350 UV has fully met our expectations.’ 

With a staff of about 10, Vebraco is a relatively small company that over the past decade has built a strong domestic and international client base in label printing for the food, chemistry and cosmetic industries. Its new Screen printer will help to further diversify its business, according to Bulten. Its expertise in food labels and labels in other industries, combined with the trend of an increasing need for small print rounds that need to be delivered fast, has helped the company gain new clients in recent years, and with the new machine it can continue this growth. 

‘However, rather than growing for growth’s sake, we prefer to stay relatively small and maintain our highly regarded flexibility, as well as the cherished ability to stay close to our clients,’ Bulten concluded.
