Italian label specialist Pubbliservice, in Parma, has chosen a Durst Tau 330 E UV inkjet label press to enhance its short-run cosmetic, chemical, detergent and food label production.

The family-owned company was first established more than 30 years ago as a traditional silk-screen printing company. Stefano Salati, Pubbliservice president, first approached Durst following extensive online research. He explained, ‘We were looking to increase our printing capabilities and, in particular, meet the market needs for short-run cosmetic, chemical, detergent and food label production.

‘The Tau 330 E UV inkjet press seemed the most suitable solution. The quality and price ratio was great considering the fact that inkjet UV is different from inkjet, which we’re already using. It delivered the right for solution for printing speeds and a lower costs of consumables.’

The Tau 330 E is a UV inkjet label press featuring print width 200 mm or 330 mm, with four or five colours and a printing speed of up to 48m/min at a printing resolution of up to 1260 dpi. The system has been engineered with particular attention to equipment cost while maintaining the proven speed and printing quality of the flagship Tau 330 printing press. Its newly designed high pigment UV inkjet inks provide a further cost reduction for a lower TCO.
