On a mission for efficient label manufacturing S


ussex based Mission Labels has switched to using Rotometrics’ award winning RotoRepel non-stick coated dies. Designed to


improve die cutting efficiency on substrates that use difficult adhesives and hot melt, RotoRepel has none of the chipping or flaking often associated with non-stick coatings and creates an improved workflow with fewer stoppages. Speaking for Mission Labels, co-founder and technical sales


director, Dave Humphrey comments: “We’re running typically 70,000 to 100,000 sqm jobs at around 120m/min, so need reliable and accurate performance from our dies. RotoRepel has made a huge difference to the performance of our two Nilpeter presses, and for us Rotometrics products are the benchmark for the industry.” Set up in 2002 by Dave Humphrey and his wife Fiona, and Martin and Sue Gearing, the company has grown to a £2.5m business that employs 18 and produces a variety of labels for the food, hair and beauty, pharmaceutical and industrial markets. Printing is carried out on two eight colour Nilpeter FB flexo lines with reverse printing, over- lamination and back-cutting capability, with the facility to produce peel and reveal labels. Converting is handled by Omega, Rotoflex, and Flexor equipment.


HIGH HYGIENE The company uses a range of materials from paper-based to synthetics, all adhering to the strict regulations of BRC, from which it holds the top ‘High Hygiene AA’ rating. Mission Labels uses low migration UV and WB inks throughout, with UV varnishing, with the offer of a white back up on clear film to produce a UV quality label with WB inks. Fully self-sufficient from pre-press to finishing, the company has a policy of ongoing investment, that includes a full suite of Adobe software, CtP processing of HD-flexo plates, and a state-of-the art colour matching system. Dave Humphrey sums up the value of getting the small details


right: “We are an efficient outfit here and need all of our technology to perform to the best of its ability. The simple and inexpensive switch to RotoRepel has given us improved performance from our presses, simplified life for our operators, and improved our bottom line.”
