The Utroque double-sided labelling system has cut label waste by 50%
Confectionery brand Blockhead has installed Source Labels’ Utroque double-sided labelling system.
The investment has cut label waste at the confectionery company by 50% and reduced material weight by 40%.
Miranda Best, operations manager, said, ‘We have been absolutely amazed by the sheer scale of benefits we have experienced as a result of converting our labelling to Utroque. Not only have we seen a significant cost and waste reduction, but also improvements in functionality.
‘It’s hard to visualise the amount of support liner used in product labelling until you see it all packed up and ready for disposal, and to save 50% is just fantastic. We have also benefitted from extra efficiencies in stock movements and the number of reels we need to stock. Switching to Utroque has been a remarkable success for our business, and we are totally elated with the results.’
Tim Lowe, Source Labels managing director, added, ‘It is fantastic to see the wide range of benefits Blockhead has experienced by switching to Utroque. The technology offers a compelling win-win for companies looking to make efficiency and cost savings while embracing green practices and shrinking their carbon footprint.’
