Xeikon invites label converters to “See The Proof” of digital label printing
Company launches new program allowing converters to experience how far digital printing can go by having their own labels printed digitally easily
Eede, The Netherlands, June 14, 2013 – Xeikon NV, an innovator in digital color printing technology, today invited label converters who may have lingering questions about the quality of digitally printed labels to see the possibilities with their own eyes. The company has launched a new program, called “See The Proof", which gives label converters a low threshold way of testing and evaluating the quality of digital printing of their own label projects.
From June 15 to Sept. 15, label converters around the world can upload their own digital label to a special website: www.seetheproof.com. The labels will be printed on five different materials; paper label, structured wine label material, metalized labels, transparent and white PE. All will be printed with the new ICE toner, that Xeikon will also demonstrate life at Labelexpo Europe 2013.
Finished labels can be picked up during Labelexpo Europe 2013 in Brussels, Belgium, from September 24-September 29, 2013, at Xeikon’s booth, which is located in Hall 9 H45. Any labels that aren’t picked up at Labelexpo will be delivered to the owners after the show.
“We’ve launched ‘See The Proof’ specifically to help label converters overcome any last doubts they may have about the quality of digital label printing,” says Filip Weymans, Xeikon’s Director Business Development Labels and Packaging. “The message we’re sending to label converters is, ‘Try it for yourselves, without any commitment or risk'. We are confident they will love the results. It may be the last proof needed to erase any false myths and to convince them of the need for an investment that will grow their business.”
