Weston, October 5, 2020 - Digital printing of carton packaging and labels is showing steady growth of 20% per annum projected from 2018 to 20231. In this market context, Ricoh Latin America announces new Ricoh Packaging 4D solutions that enable commercial printers to expand their services and enter the packaging market with end-to-end folding carton and label entry solutions.
Through the Ricoh Pro C7200X and Pro C9200 Series portfolio of digital presses, companies will gain the highest productivity, substrate versatility, quality and colour consistency, with the ability to go beyond CYMK by adding a fifth colour. In addition, a comprehensive portfolio of software is included to create unique packaging designs, achieve striking, eye-catching and consistent colours, organise an efficient production flow and add a special touch to packaging with personalisation, QR codes and even augmented reality.
"In this new normal where customer expectations have changed and demand more personalised and engaging communications, digital packaging is a great opportunity for print companies to join a new world of business opportunities. Instead of competing on price, they can now focus on added value, such as personalisation or short runs on demand and even add innovative elements such as QR codes and Augmented Reality. Apart from Ricoh's reliable hardware and software, we also support our customers with a network of dedicated technicians to ensure continuity of productivity (4D Packaging Maintenance Programme), as well as a 24-hour remote monitoring system (@Remote)," explains Angel Bustamante, Vice President Commercial & Industrial Printing, Ricoh Latin America.
