Links Labels & Tapes has installed its second Gidue press, the MX2 flexo press, to ensure it can keep pace with an increasing demand for high quality labels.
The MX2 is 370 mm wide with eight colours, two dies, delam/relam, cold foil and web cleaner. The press has all the top quality components and technologies of the company’s upper class models. According to the company its printing and register quality and speed of set up makes it the ideal choice of flexo press for all converters in the Label industry.
Reg Rudd, managing director, said, ‘The additional investment of another Gidue flexo press will ensure we keep pace with an increasing demand for High Quality labels that our customers expect. Gidue flexo presses provide consistently high quality labels at speed and with very little maintenance. This together with the installation and commissioning support given by Gidue and Global Print Services was a key factor in SLPP’s continuing investment in the Gidue brand.’
The company is a leading player in technical labels and manufactures the complete range of labels from very basic and plain to multi coloured, including wet and dry peel multi-layer coupons, all on numerous substrates and in various formats. Their markets include DIY, motor manufacturers, chemicals and they supply print management and other trade label companies.
The company has made significant investment over the last two years which has seen installations of a replacement HP Indigo Digital Press, several finishing machines, platemaking facilities and two Gidue flexo presses, the M1 and the new MX2.
