sharing the company’s deeper understanding, experience, and valued digital
printing expertise with the international label community, Xeikon can offer
printers and converters insights into different ways of transforming a label
printing business into a business for the future.
Starting now and in preparation
for the show, visitors to the website transform.xeikon.com can consult Xeikon
and get advice on the ideal digital set-up for their business by simply
answering a few questions. As a pioneer in full color digital label printing,
Xeikon has gathered a wealth of knowledge on the key success factors in
implementing digital production.
Over the four days of Labelexpo,
Xeikon will exhibit on the Flint Group stand 5C28 and feature a wide portfolio
of digital label printing solutions, including entry level as well as high
productivity production lines from start to finish. There will be
demonstrations on the latest innovative power of Xeikon’s X-800 workflow tools

and demonstrating food safety for flexible packaging and stand up pouches.
Filip Weymans, Xeikon’s VP
Marketing states, “Looking at today’s consumer-driven trends and the evolving
diversity in consumer behaviour, label printers and converters are confronted
with a number of challenges. They face varying run lengths, increasing numbers
of jobs, long runs over many versions, personalisation, and just-in-time
delivery requirements while still running their operational costs effectively.
Digitising their print manufacturing process helps them to address these
challenges. With ‘Transform’, we provide a tool that guides business owners in
this transformation process.”
“Xeikon has over 30 years of
experience in developing digital technologies for the label industry,”
continues Weymans. “We have the deepest market understanding allowing us to
offer label converters tailored advice on how to start with digital or optimise
existing digital production. By just asking five simple questions related to
their business, we provide personal advice that can set them on the right track
to choose the ideal configuration for their business strategy out of almost 200
possible digital label production setups.”
