Destaques

  • Founded in 2009, MR has always been a digital-only packaging print business, producing short run packaging and protypes for major luxury brands.
  • At drupa 2024 the company confirmed an investment in Fujifilm’s Jet Press 750S for folding carton packaging.
  • The french packaging company decided the Jet Press was the right machine to support business growth.
  • MR was impressed by Fujifilm’s commitment to understand their particular needs to ensure the press worked exactly as they needed it to.
  • The water-based inks the Jet Press uses, and the recyclability of Jet Press printed products, were very important factors in their decision.
  • The Jet Press 750S investment is an important step in MR Cartonnage Numerique reducing their carbon footprint and environmental impact.

Founded in 2009, and a DIAM company since 2017, MR has been a digital-only packaging print business from the outset, producing short run packaging and protypes for major luxury brands. At drupa 2024 the company confirmed an investment in Fujifilm’s Jet Press 750S for folding carton packaging.

“The folding carton packaging market is growing,” says company founder and CEO Jonathan Mihy. “And within that market, short run work is increasing fastest of all. But achieving the necessary levels of quality, and being able to do so profitably, remains a challenge.

“We’re always on the lookout for new technologies to give us a competitive edge and to help us to grow,” Mr Mihy continues. “Ultimately, we decided the Jet Press was the right machine to help us do that, and there were a lot of reasons behind that decision.”

“We’d been looking into inkjet over a number of years, and became increasingly certain that our next investment needed to be in an inkjet press. We also wanted a B2 format size – so those criteria immediately put the Jet Press on our radar.

“When we started looking at it closely, we were even more impressed. Not just by the machine itself – but the lengths that Fujifilm went to, throughout the process, to ensure that it worked exactly as it needed to. We tested it exhaustively and Fujifilm were hugely supportive right from the very beginning until we were ready to make our decision. They worked with us incredibly closely to understand our challenges and particular needs and to answer every question. This is our first ever investment with Fujifilm and through the whole decision-making process they’ve been a pleasure to work with.”

Mr Mihy also has high praise for the press itself. “The colour consistency is excellent,” he continues. “That is so important for our clients. We can print a short run and then have complete confidence that we can match the colours exactly at a later date.”

“The up-time and reliability are also superb. The press is robust, built an offset-style chassis, and downtime is minimal. Furthermore,” Mr Mihy concludes. “the water based inks the Jet Press uses, and the easy recyclability of Jet Press printed products, were also very important factors in our decision. We’re committed, as a business, to reducing our carbon footprint and our environmental impact. Our Jet Press investment is an important step in that direction.”

Taro Aoki, Head of Digital Press Solutions, Fujifilm Europe adds: “The Jet Press has been setting quality and productivity standards in commercial print for more than a decade. We’re delighted now to see more and more customers recognising its potential for high-end, short to mid-run packaging, based on its wider colour gamut, consistent colour quality, flat tint reproduction and higher machine up-time. We’re honoured that MR Cartonnage Numerique has opted to partner with us to expand their business, and we look forward to a long future working together.”

Destaques

  • A EA Printing investe na Revoria Press PC1120, o que lhes permite aumentar a oferta aos clientes em termos de impressão.
  • Matt Saulsbury, coproprietário, entende o investimento na impressora digital e a parceria com a Fujifilm como passos positivos para o futuro da empresa.
  • A empresa de impressão digital colabora com uma série de importantes marcas no Reino Unido e a nível mundial, com oferta de um vasto leque de serviços.
  • A impressora inclui um motor de impressão avançado com 10 cores, incluindo dourado, prateado, branco, rosa e transparente, facilmente configurável em seis estações.
  • Além das cores especiais, a EA Printing apercebeu-se de uma melhoria na produtividade e na qualidade comparativamente à sua impressora anterior.
  • A EA Printing está a pensar realizar dias de casa aberta, para que os clientes possam vir e ver o potencial das cores especiais e os efeitos que, agora, conseguem oferecer.

Uma pequena empresa em termos de dimensão física, a EA Printing, com sede em Leicestershire, colabora com um vasto leque de importantes marcas no Reino Unido e a nível mundial, tanto diretamente como através de agências criativas. Com oferta de uma ampla gama de serviços, desde a impressão digital aos grandes formatos, tipografia, cunhagem, gravação em relevo e afundamento, a EA Printing é especialista em trabalhos complexos e conceituais que os seus clientes têm dificuldade em realizar em qualquer outro lugar. A precisar de substituir um dispositivo de toner em fim de vida útil, os proprietários da empresa extremamente práticos, Matt Saulsbury e David Kennedy, tiveram em consideração uma série de opções antes de escolherem a Revoria Press PC1120.

Saulsbury comenta: “Nunca tínhamos trabalhado com a Fujifilm, pois, até recentemente, não tinham estado diretamente envolvidos no mercado dos toners no Reino Unido. Apesar de, obviamente e como todos sabem, as impressoras de toner fabricadas pela Fujifilm já estarem presentes no mercado há muito tempo e de nós mesmos já usarmos uma há alguns anos. Fiquei sempre bastante impressionado com a tecnologia, pelo que, quando comecei a ver alguns artigos na imprensa especializada sobre a entrada da Fujifilm diretamente no mercado dos toners no Reino Unido, fiquei interessado. Conheço a qualidade dos seus produtos e gostei da ideia de trabalhar com eles diretamente.

“Por fim, foi uma vista de um representante de vendas para grandes formatos da Fujifilm que realmente deu despoletou o processo. Veio falar connosco sobre os grandes formatos, mas rapidamente começámos a falar sobre a Revoria, e tudo começou aí.

“Tivemos em consideração algumas outras opções, incluindo permanecer com o nosso fornecedor da altura, mas acabámos por decidir que era preciso aproveitar a oportunidade para investir em algo que iria ajudar a diferenciar a nossa oferta e a desenvolver o nosso negócio, em vez de simplesmente ficarmos quietos e continuarmos como estávamos. Quando tomámos essa decisão, a escolha foi óbvia.”

A Revoria Press PC1120 da EA Printing foi instalada no final de dezembro de 2023 e começou logo a trabalhar a partir do início de janeiro. “Começou logo a ser utilizada de forma intensiva,” continua Saulsbury. “Mesmo antes de termos concluído a nossa formação sobre a sua utilização, começámos a receber trabalhos. Ficámos bastante satisfeitos com o facto de ter a opção de tinta branca, com todos os pedidos que recebemos para impressão em cartão escuro ou colorido. Também vimos imediatamente o potencial das opções de tinta dourada e prateada para conquistar trabalhos de grande valor com efeitos metálicos. Mas, com alguma surpresa para nós, a principal vantagem até ao momento tem sido a tinta rosa – que já nos fez conquistar alguns trabalhos de cartões de felicitações. A agência criativa que encomendava os cartões de felicitações precisava de um fornecedor de impressão que conseguisse produzir cores fluorescentes, e o rosa fluorescente que conseguimos obter na PC1120 era precisamente aquilo de que precisavam.

“A outra vantagem do rosa, de um ponto de vista muito mais prático, é o facto de, agora, conseguirmos igualar muitas mais cores pantone do que antes. Os clientes estão sempre a trazer cores ligeiramente fora do normal e a perguntar-nos se conseguimos igualá-las. Com o rosa, já o conseguimos fazer com maior frequência que antes.”

Com um leque tão alargado de coisas que a empresa consegue agora oferecer, a EA Printing está a planear alguns eventos de casa aberta para as agências criativas virem e testemunharem o potencial criativo das cores especiais que já conseguimos oferecer. Além das cores especiais, Saulsbury também destaca a maior produtividade e qualidade comparativamente à sua impressora anterior.

“A qualidade surpreendeu-me.” Confessa Saulsbury. “Sabia que era uma evolução – mas não estava à espera que a evolução fosse tão grande como foi. Foi realmente evidente para nós e também tivemos clientes a destacar esse facto.

Num mercado desafiante, Saulsbury tem confiança nas perspetivas da sua própria empresa e considera o seu investimento e a parceria com a Fujifilm como passos positivos para enfrentar o futuro.

A principal empresa gráfica do Reino Unido expande as capacidades e melhora a eficiência operacional com um investimento combinado na Jet Press 750S modelo High Speed, Revoria Press PC1120 e Revoria Press série E1 da Fujifilm.

Quando uma das anteriores máquinas digitais da empresa atingiu o seu fim de vida útil, a equipa da Impress começou a explorar várias opções no mercado. Michael Kille, Diretor Executivo, Impress Print Services, comenta: “A qualidade produzida na nossa anterior máquina digital era boa, mas havia problemas ao nível da produtividade. Agora, as máquinas da Fujifilm fazem precisamente aquilo que precisamos que façam, de forma imediata e com o mínimo de períodos de inatividade, melhorando os nossos índices gerais de produtividade e eficiência empresariais. Além disso, as nossas capacidades de produção e a nossa oferta de valor foram significativamente melhoradas com a adição do B2 digital, que complementa a nossa oferta de litografia.

“Adicionalmente,” continua Kille. “As cores especiais na Revoria PC1120 ajudaram-nos realmente a manter determinados tipos de trabalho que anteriormente tinham impressão offset em 70x100, e estamos encantados com a qualidade e a produtividade da Revoria B1 monocromática.”

As novas impressoras empurraram a Impress para novos mercados, como as embalagens de pequena tiragem (através da Jet Press), e permitiram-lhe executar internamente trabalhos de litografia B1 (através das impressoras Revoria) anteriormente contratados a terceiros.

A Impress é uma empresa que dá prioridade à sustentabilidade, como ficou bem patente no seu compromisso com a reciclagem de materiais; o seu programa de sustentabilidade em curso e o aproveitamento da energia solar para as suas próprias necessidades energéticas. No momento de analisar o investimento, a Impress atribuiu enorme importância às credenciais ambientais gerais das novas máquinas.

Michael comenta: “Desde que instalámos os equipamentos Fujifilm, assistimos a uma redução significativa no consumo energético. Em particular, com as eficiências criadas pela Jet Press 750S, a sua capacidade B2 e uma produtividade melhorada, junto com a falta de interrupções e um fluxo de trabalho harmonioso, os nossos desperdícios e períodos de inatividade diminuíram e a produção aumentou significativamente.”

Conclui: “Tem sido uma experiência fantástica trabalhar com a Fujifilm no processo de vendas e instalação; e estão sempre disponíveis no momento de fornecer suporte continuado. São realmente um dos melhores fornecedores do setor. Graças à Fujifilm, temos agora o melhor do jato de tinta e o melhor do toner, bem como um negócio com resultados mais produtivos e mais eficazes que nunca.”

Taro Aoki, Responsável pelas soluções de impressão digital, Fujifilm Graphic Communications Europe, comenta: “A Fujifilm é a única no mercado a oferecer o melhor em termos de soluções de toner e jato de tinta e é particularmente gratificante estabelecer parcerias com empresas que reconhecem o enorme potencial da combinação destas novas tecnologias. Mas as nossas tecnologias líderes de mercado são apenas metade da história. Estamos igualmente orgulhosos do serviço que fornecemos após a instalação, quando ajudamos as empresas a desenvolverem-se e a crescer. Este investimento arrojado por parte da Impress é apenas o início. Esperamos poder continuar a colaborar com eles nos meses e anos que se avizinham, ao mesmo tempo que aumentam a sua oferta e negócio e transferem os benefícios das melhores tecnologias de toner e jato de tinta para os seus próprios clientes.”

  • Allen signs invested in the Acuity Prime Hybrid in 2023
  • The family-run signage business sought an investment in Hybrid print technology.
  • The printer has seamlessly integrated into the company’s workflow.
  • The trust-based partnership with Fujifilm has proven to be a key factor in the investment.
  • Since the investment, the company has found the printer to be incredibly versatile.
  • The company looks forward to exploring more ways that the Prime Hybrid can help them expand.

UK-based signage and vehicle livery specialist Allen Signs has become the first company to invest in Fujifilm’s new Acuity Prime Hybrid printer. The ground-breaking wide format hybrid machine , which was released earlier this year, is highly versatile due to its ability to handle both rigid and flexible media.

The family-run wide format business was established in 1965, and since then, has been producing a variety of different signage applications for its consumers. David Allen, the company’s Managing Director, says his interest in the Acuity Prime Hybrid stemmed from its versatility and economical ink consumption.

Allen comments: “Due to our familiarity with hybrid platforms, we sought the Acuity Prime Hybrid as an opportunity to explore the Fujifilm brand further. The printer has now allowed us to carry out our normal production with minimal issues and excellent quality and ink performance.”

Allen adds that the Acuity Prime Hybrid’s versatility has enabled his business to print on a wider variety of substrates more efficiently and cost-effectively. The machine is already being used to print on wall coverings, direct to board and even metallic surfaces.

Impressed by the printer’s ease of use, Matt Ryder, Print Specialist at Allen Signs, says: “We tried a job on the new Fujifilm machine, and instantly, it tracked. It was perfect. As for materials, we are yet to come across a substrate that doesn’t work.”

Having built a partnership, based on trust, with Fujifilm, Allen adds: “Fujifilm has been an absolute breeze to deal with. The installation and the training were extremely quick and efficient. I’m looking forward to seeing how the Acuity Prime Hybrid printer will allow us to expand our business in the future.”

Andy Kent, Division Manager, Fujifilm Graphic Communications UK, states: “We are delighted to hear that our wide range of customers are more than satisfied with our printing technologies. As a result of Allen Signs investing in our Acuity Prime Hybrid, they have seen significant increases in print quality and a reduction in costs, whilst expanding their substrate selection. It’s fantastic to see them exploring new business opportunities.”

Alessandro Conte | Biblos

Byblos, an industry leader in high quality print production, founded in 1992, has recently made a strategic investment in Fujifilm’s Acuity Prime 30 wide format flatbed printer. This acquisition has allowed the company to attract a broader customer base, win new business opportunities, and position itself for continued success in meeting customer demands for high quality and customised wide format printing.

With a firm commitment to delivering exceptional wide format printing solutions, the Acuity Prime, installed in May 2023, is the latest addition to their advanced production line-up. Equipped with seven ink channels, CMYK, White, Clear, and Primer, and powered by the ColorGATE RIP, the new printer is empowering Byblos to expand its production offering to include unconventional materials such as wood composite and glass.

The decision to invest in the Acuity Prime 30 was driven by Byblos’ dedication to superior quality and the opportunity to experiment with different types of media and finishing techniques – such as being able to achieve a satin or glossy finish. According to Alessandro Conte, Managing Director of Byblos, these capabilities have been very well received by their clients. Furthermore, the excellent support provided by the Fujifilm team played a significant role in solidifying the partnership.

Conte is enthusiastic about the investment: “The Acuity Prime has transformed our production process and elevated our ability to meet the evolving needs of our clients. Its impressive speed and remarkable quality have exceeded our expectations. We can now deliver personalised, high-quality printing in shorter turnaround times, and unleash our creativity by printing on unconventional materials. This gives us a competitive edge in the market.”

The Acuity Prime 30’s remarkable ink quality enables Byblos to work with a wide array of materials, including various metals and glass, when using a primer. The ink demonstrates exceptional adhesion, with stunning precision and vibrancy in every print. And the durability of the ink allows it to withstand the effects of chemicals and cleaning agents, ensuring longevity and exceptional print quality.

Alessandro Conte, Managing Director of Byblos, concluded: “The Acuity Prime 30 investment is transforming our business. With its unmatched print quality and the ability to work with diverse materials, we have exceeded our clients’ expectations. This investment has not only fuelled our growth but has also solidified our position as a leader in the industry.”

Daniele Carino of Fujifilm Italy added. “The Acuity Prime 30, part of Fujifilm’s ‘new blueprint for wide format’ has been exceptionally well received since it was launched two years ago. It was built to deliver versatility, value and ease-of-use, and we’re delighted that Byblos has become the latest company to recognise its potential and take advantage of it.”

With more than 9,000 employees in 20 countries and an annual turnover of more than €1.2 billion, Paragon Group is a major global player in direct mail, transactional print, business outsourcing and packaging. Within that wider business, Paragon Germany employs more than 1,200 employees across eight locations in Germany, Czech Republic and Poland.

Looking to replace legacy inkjet imprinting equipment on a direct mail printing production line in Schwandorf, Germany, the company has turned to Fujifilm and its industry-leading imprinting solutions, installing a pair of one metre wide Fujifilm imprinting bars to print to the front and the reverse of the web.

“There were a number of reasons we went with Fujifilm over rival systems,” explains Bernd Wein, Paragon Operations Director, Direct Mail. “We liked that they fully own all the technologies – the printheads as well as the integration technology. It gives us confidence to be dealing with one partner – a partner that we were confident could offer the service and support we need to ensure ongoing smooth operation and the swift resolution to any problems.

“It’s also proven technology,” Mr Wein continues. “Fujifilm has a long heritage in inkjet, and its imprinting solutions are tried and tested. They’re a strong and respected manufacturer and a financially robust and stable company that we know we can depend on over the long term.

“The fact that Fujifilm acquired Unigraphica in 2022 was also a factor in our investment decision. The combination of Fujifilm and Unigraphica inkjet systems integration expertise was a very attractive proposition.”

“Finally, Fujifilm was also able to provide a bespoke system as large as one metre wide. No one else we spoke to was able to do that. And furthermore, compared with our legacy system, the Fujifilm imprinting system gives us more up-time, shorter set-up times and results in far less waste.”

Stefan Steinle, Sales & Business Development Manager, FUJIFILM Integrated Inkjet Solutions, Europe comments: “We’re delighted that a company of Paragon’s reputation and standing has chosen to invest in Fujifilm inkjet imprinting technology. We look forward to boosting Paragon’s productivity, and reducing its costs for many years to come.”

Emmerson Press, a respected commercial printer based in Kenilworth, UK, has been first before. A Fujifilm plates customer for nearly two decades, in 2016 they became the first printer in the UK to invest in the Jet Press 720S, later upgrading to the Jet Press 750S in 2019. Now, in 2023, they have now become the first UK print business to invest in Fujifilm’s newly launched ApeosPro C810 toner press.

The deal was formally agreed at a Fujifilm event in London’s docklands in May to celebrate the launch of Fujifilm’s toner technologies in the UK.

Jamie Emmerson, Director, Emmerson Press comments: “We had an existing toner machine that had reached end of life and we were looking for a new solution. After looking at the market, the ApeosPro C Toner Press seemed like an ideal choice. We’d been researching it for some time but had to wait patiently until the official UK launch in April to speak to our Fujifilm representative. Following this conversation, we soon signed the deal. Despite it being newly launched in the UK, we did our homework and, being a long-term Fujifilm partner, we were confident that the technology had been tried and tested. Being the first in the UK to invest in Fujifilm technology once again, marks an exciting time for us and we are confident that this investment will give us a competitive edge.”

“We’ll use it to produce a wide range of additional applications – particularly any ultra-short run work that needs to be turned around instantly. And we’ll also use it as an office printer, which further helps with costs and efficiency. The small format size is very useful and overall, the price point, combined with the quality that can be achieved, makes this a truly exceptional machine that is well worth the investment.

“The ApeosPro C Toner Press complements our existing machines well. Fujifilm is a trusted partner, who we enjoy working with – and having multiple solutions from one vendor makes things much simpler to manage, and the support from the Fujifilm team is always second to none.”

Martin Fairweather, National Digital Business Development Manager, Fujifilm UK comments: “We’re delighted to be further expanding our partnership with Emmerson Press. Their trust in us as a long-term partner is demonstrated by them becoming the first in the UK to invest in Fujifilm technology once again. Following the official recent ApeosPro C launch earlier this year, we’re excited to continue to drive this momentum forward and Emmerson Press is the perfect company to gain maximum benefits from this technology.”

The success of the ApeosPro C Toner Press underscores our dedication to meeting the evolving needs of valued customers like Emmerson Press. By addressing the challenges faced by modern businesses, we have positioned ourselves at the forefront of the printing industry, offering a solution that not only elevates the standard of output but also streamlines processes and enhances sustainability.

Soyang, a UK-based partner of Fujifilm, recently hosted an Open House event to showcase the remarkable capabilities of the ‘superwide’ (5m) Acuity Ultra R2 roll-fed printer to customers in its showroom. As a highly respected wide format materials supplier looking to enter into hardware sales, Soyang initially partnered with Fujifilm in mid-2022 to become a distributor of the Acuity Ultra R2 in the UK. The company was impressed with the machine’s ability to deliver on quality, reliability and ROI.

The well-attended Open House took place in Soyang’s new, purpose-built Acuity Ultra R2 Roll-fed printer showroom at its 70,000ft² head office and distribution centre in Accrington, Lancashire. In addition to the new showroom, Soyang stocks more 1.5 million m² of printing solutions, including a vast variety of substrates.

Soyang Europe Managing Director Mark Mashiter commented: “The Acuity Ultra R2 Roll-fed printer is a revolutionary machine and is part of Fujifilm’s new blueprint for wide format. At Soyang, we’re historically very well known for finding solutions to 5m prints, so as we branch out from being a wide format materials supplier into hardware, we felt that the ‘superwide’ 5m Acuity Ultra R2 printer would be a perfect fit for our portfolio.”

He adds: “We already support a huge number of customers in the wide format sector with material sales. We’re pleased to be able to offer hardware too.”

Soyang’s Open House event was hosted in partnership with Josero, a leading UK supplier of wide format printers, sign and print finishing equipment and printing supplies. Soyang, which bought the majority shares of Josero last year, has also partnered with Fujifilm to distribute the Acuity Prime flatbed printer in the UK.

Soyang customer Vincent Randall, co-owner of MediaCo Group, commented: “It was a pleasure to attend Soyang’s Open House event and it was great to see the Acuity Ultra R2 in-person. The fact that Fujifilm is making machines and designing them around users’ needs – and around their inks – is significantly important to companies like ours.”

Launched in mid-2021 as part of Fujifilm’s new Acuity wide format range, the Acuity Prime flatbed and Acuity Ultra R2 Roll-fed printers have each won iF, Good Design and Red Dot awards for their impeccable design features.

Andy Webb, UK Wide Format Sales Manager at Fujifilm, notes: “Our Acuity wide format machines were all fully developed by Fujifilm to maximise usability and ROI. We’re confident that Soyang’s extensive industry knowledge, expertise and customer base – all demonstrated at its recent Open House event – will help us to boost Acuity Ultra R2 and Acuity Prime sales across the UK.”
