Italian label manufacturer Site 3000 has added to inkjet digital printing to its capabilities with the installation of a seven-colour Screen Truepress Jet L350 SAI S.
Sita 3000 has long been a respected producer of self-adhesive labels for the Italian market. Its team of 10 employees make adhesive, customised and printed labels for various sectors, specialising mostly in the food, industrial and pharmaceutical sectors. Founded in 1961, the company supplies multi-page labels, open-closure labels, roll labels, sheet labels and continuous forms labels.
Gianluigi De Blasio, technical area manager at Sita 3000, said, ‘Our customers, more than ever before, are demanding flexibility and quality at the same time. Digital printing allows us to be competitive in small to medium print runs, which isn’t possible with conventional printing.’
REM Labels and Packaging Solutions, SCREEN’s distributor in Italy, guided Sita 3000 in the choice and installation of the Screen Truepress Jet L350 SAI S seven-colour UV inkjet digital press, which was chosen for its reliability, efficiency and print quality. The SAI builds on the technology of the successful Truepress Jet L350UV and L350UV+ series of machines, offering much greater colour reproducibility than was previously possible, increasing Pantone coverage and reducing colour differences with specific spot colours.
‘One of Sita 3000’s strengths is that we have always been able to invest in new technologies, as is the case of the seven-colour Truepress Jet L350 SAI S, our company’s first digital label press,’ said Mr De Blasio. ‘Continuous innovation has been key to remaining a major player in the Italian label market for more than 60 years.’
