A customer called looking for a fast turnaround on some tamper proof labels having been given unsatisfactory delivery times from competitors.
To produce these labels, we would need a new cutter from our supplier, Kocher and Beck in Coalville. We know the lead times on cutters and the lead times on plates from any one of our three printing plate suppliers.
The customer ordered the labels on a Monday. Before production, we ordered the cutter which was delivered on Wednesday morning. Plates arrived around the same time and we printed and shipped their tamper-proof labels. These were dispatched on Thursday and they received their tamper-proof labels on Friday.
The customer was pleased with the quality and the fast delivery. They called to express their thanks. Due to our quick turnaround, they will now send us all of their label business which is around £10,000 worth of digital labels a year.
When we did this job, we had our older digital press so elected to do the work all on the older technology flexo printers we have.
Digital printing is now done on our Jetrion 4900 press. The press uses uv inkjet technology so we do not need to use printing plates – unlike the tamper-proof labels in the story. Inkjet works just as you would expect on your desktop printer. The press can print in full colour and has a white inkjet station so we can print fully coloured labels on clear materials by laying down white where the ink is required before printing the colours.
The press includes a laser die cutting station which means we can cut out any label shape using the lasers – the is no need for rotary cutters nor the restrictions on label shapes or size associated with rotary cutters.

Orexis Fresh Foods Ltd is a family run Food Manufacturing Company specializing in ethnic dips, Mexican dips, luxury salads and sandwich fillings. Orexis Ltd approached Positive ID for a simple cost effective way to apply a “Best Before” and “Batch Number” to a range of their products.
The answer was to use a two line-labelling gun. George Katsaros from Orexis said “we have been using Positive ID for 3 years now and they initially advised us correctly about the right products to use and have been well pleased and served by them since”.
