Specialist label printer Secura Labels Ltd, based in Derbyshire UK, has taken delivery of the very latest LED UV equipped Proflex 330E flexo press, manufactured & supplied by UK manufacturer, Focus Label Machinery Ltd. The new press joins three more Focus supplied machines and will increase production capacity and efficiency of high-quality self-adhesive labels.

High quality printed labels and packaging showcase their products in the most dynamic way possible. Low-quality printing, in comparison, projects products in entirely the wrong way, suggesting them to be substandard or of poor value, so it’s vital for manufacturers to choose a print method that accurately reflects the business’s Unique Selling Points (USPs), and for printing businesses to provide them with a service of the required quality and reliability.

Rising energy costs are forcing many print production businesses to explore more cost-effective ways of printing, but it’s vital that lower prices don’t come at the expense of quality. Conventional UV curing technology is being superseded by modern LED-UV methods, which also help businesses to comply with the green agenda so, for progressive companies hoping to make an impact on their market, LED-UV printing is a win-win.

The UV curing process has revolutionised the Printing Industry over the past 30 Years. LED -UV is about to push the digital inkjet and flexographic printing processes to the forefront of economic & environmental thoughts on future production. The technology gives businesses far greater scope for fast printing on a range of label and packaging substrates with less down time , reduced clean downs, while consuming less energy and emitting fewer harmful irritants.
