Kingfisher Labels has recently purchased another Edale flexo press for its production facility based in Yate, north Bristol.
The manufacturer has a long standing relationship with Kingfisher Labels since it installed the company’s first machine in 2001 and this, the most recent addition of an FL-1 flexographic press, brings the total number of Edale machines up to four.
Family-owned Kingfisher Labels has over 40 years of knowledge and experience specialising in the manufacturing of plain and printed labels. This purchase has allowed the printer to streamline its production process, supporting the company’s lean initiatives.
The award winning FL-1 is a compact flexographic printing press, capable of converting a wide variety of labels and ticketing substrates. Boasting a short web path it has a compact design of 2.5 square metres, offers quick job change through ease of access and is available with an extensive range of options.
Director Martin Jackson said, ‘The new flexographic press complements the sites other existing Edale presses, including the first FL-1 multi machine produced. The additional capacity will allow the site to produce a greater volume and range of products, it will also help strengthen the quality and service levels we deliver to our customer.’
He continued, ‘Edale was the obvious choice when looking to invest in our next press. We knew we could trust not only the quality of machine but also the customer service and support.’
