ADVERTORIALS Specialty Printing choosesVetaphone corona treaters
boost productivity across the wide range of its customised labels. Specialty Printing occupies a 130,000-sq/ſt plant, employs 155 people, houses 17 printing presses with web widths ranging from 10” to 30”, with the capability of printing up to 14 colours. Francis Poirier, Senior VP Operations, explained: “We have grown very
O
quickly because of the customised products and services we offer. By working closely with the medical industry, we have innovated a range of unique products that set us apart from our competitors.” But innovation is worthless without the capability of backing it up on a consistent and reliable basis, and Poirier is very proud of his company’s achievements in terms of production efficiency.
“We installed our first corona treater in 2011, and 12 months later needed
another. By that stage our experience prompted us to look around the market, and in our opinion Vetaphone was the best way to go,” he added. Specialty’s decision saw one double sided and two single sided units installed on 28” and 30” machines, and Poirier calculates they have treated more than 1.1billion feet of substrate to date, without a hitch. Key to his decision in choosing Vetaphone was the open and approachable stance that the company adopts towards its customers. “We knew exactly what we needed – they listened and responded in the same way that we do with our customers – and, they were the only manufacturer to offer a performance and dyne level guarantee on the materials we use. That shows real confidence in your product,” he said. Materials used by Specialty include thermal stocks, vinyl, film, and foil, with water based, solvent and UV inks and coatings. “Many of the rolls come pre-
kept clean for peak performance. “We were also impressed with how quick and easy the units were to self-install,” he added. For more information:
