French labelling company Inessens has installed three of Domino’s K300 monochrome inkjet printers at its Imprimerie Bidoit site in Cognac, seeking to help customers comply with EU wine labelling legislation through 2D code printing.
Inessens consists of nine French printing houses serving a range of industries including wine, food, cosmetics, perfumes, and medical. The company’s label design includes natural pigments, anti-counterfeiting Fresnel lens technology, advanced variable data and 2D code printing.
Inessens states it has been partnering with Domino Printing Sciences on variable data printing for twenty years. The company recently replaced its Domino K150 printers with the K300 models, which reportedly enhances print quality with a resolution of up to 600 dpi and enables production at speeds of up to 250 metres per minute.
In related news, Mondi introduced its six-colour digital printing range for corrugated board in September, including water-based white inks for brown materials, facilitating high-contrast designs for primary and secondary packaging. According to Mondi, all the inks are water-based, with Swiss Quality Testing Services (SQTS) testing and approving their food safety for primary packaging.
The same month, Canon launched its Colorado XL-series platform of 3.4m printers powered by its UVgel technology, said to deliver ‘great versatility and exceptional productivity’ for flexible and rigid media applications. The platform also provides UVgel’s features such as odourless and instant-dry prints; high mechanical and chemical robustness and dimensional stability due to low-temperature curing.
