PPD&G, a US-based provider of creative promotional brand products, has upgraded its digital print capability with two new HP Indigo 6900 digital presses.
New York-headquartered PPD&G specialises in printing, packaging, displays and gifts. The printer serves global retail and cosmetic brands with demanding requirements on colour and print quality.
It has been a user of HP digital printing technology for more than 20 years. The two new HP Indigo 6900 presses were installed in July 2020 at PPD&G’s site in Hauppauge, Long Island. They replace two HP Indigo WS4500 digital presses as part of an upgrade of digital equipment alongside HP Latex R2000 printers to boost visual impact for display products, especially for the cosmetics industry. PPD&G is also expanding its capacity for digital printing on flexible materials for form-fill-seal sachets.
To manufacture its products, PPD&G combines HP digital printing technology with die-cutting, mounting, various forms of decorating, including hot stamping, embossing, screen printing, pad printing, acrylic, and metal fabrication, and dye-sublimation on fabrics.
PPD&G president Jonathan Rovner said, ‘Our creative product offerings are driven by a portfolio of manufacturing technology that makes anything possible for our customers, including supplying unique items that are hard to source.’
Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, PPD&G has stayed open and doubled up efforts to produce custom fabric masks, packaging for intubation kits for hospitals, in addition to labels for millions of bottles of hand sanitiser.
