Egger Druck & Medien has invested in a Fujifilm Jet Press 750S to help the German packaging company win more short run work and offer fast, high quality samples to its customers.
Established five generations ago by the Egger family, Egger Druck & Medien has more than 150 years of experience producing a variety of printed products, including a range of tailor-made folding carton boxes and other packaging. The company specialises in high value options for high-end products across multiple industries, including cosmetics, pharmaceutical, lifestyle and beverage.
Installed in April 2023, the Fujifilm Jet Press 750S is already enabling the company to target short-run work for the first time, while also providing customers and prospects with quick and cost-effective samples. It is being used to print on folding carton board, with a minimum run of just one, and typically using standard materials from Egger’s online shop. Being able to print extremely low quantities profitably and at high levels of quality has enabled the company to target small volume orders for high end customers – while the ability to produce high quality samples has helped win new work.
Xaver Egger, the packaging company’s managing director, said, ‘The decision to invest in the Jet Press 750S was influenced by its exceptional printing quality, which outperformed rival systems. This investment has not only allowed us to better meet the demands of our customers but has also propelled our company’s growth.
‘The current print landscape is characterised by a growing number of price-sensitive customers, resulting in an uncertain economic outlook. We have observed a shift in demand with reduced run lengths and expanding product portfolios. However, with the Jet Press 750S investment, we have gained a competitive advantage through the ability to offer cost-effective and rapid prototypes.’
Mr Egger continued, ‘We are thrilled with this investment and we are satisfied with the assistance that Fujifilm has provided us with. We would highly recommend the Jet Press 750S as it has not only broadened our business offering, but also elevated the quality of our printed results, enhancing our products and services.’
