Labels specialist Arc Labels has gone from strength to strength, built on a foundation of close customer relations and a commitment to the highest quality in production standards. Yorkshire-based Arc Labels remains a family-run enterprise, creating a close-knit and professional team with many years of industry experience. Producing everything in-house (from design to manufacture), Arc Labels enjoys a loyal customer base, with local, national, and international clients.
A family-run business for over 35 years, Yorkshire-based Arc Labels was looking to complement its flexo print technology with more flexible and cost-efficient digital technology, for short-run and variable data printing. Having tried a desktop digital solution which wasn’t suitable, the company turned to its trusted print supply partner Focus Label Machinery Ltd for a more robust industrial print alternative. The solution was the Konica Minolta AccurioLabel 230 digital label press.
Whilst a large percentage of the paperwork only needs to be printed in mono, certain documents require colour for clarity of information and therefore each branch requires the ability to print in colour. With colour printing being considerably more expensive than mono, costs had spiralled, and it was clear that an intelligent solution was required that would balance both high quality results and costs.
Having thoroughly examined the needs of the business, Elmdale worked closely with the insurance broker and its print supply partner, Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd, to install a fleet of over 200 bizhub devices, including C3350i, C4050i, C300i and C450i models. Konica Minolta’s powerful bizhub multifunctional print devices already work in conjunction with the flexible Papercut print software, which enables the business to achieve reductions in waste and provides valuable information on branch performance. However, the insurance broker was still looking to reduce its colour output considerably and it was essential to find a suitable solution across its branches.
