Printed Specialties specializes in UV printing of high-val- ue folding cartons for industries like retail, food, beverag- es, and healthcare. Its services range from package de- sign and UV printing to specialty coatings, foil stamping, embossing, die cutting, assembly, and fulfillment. With the addition of the new press, the firm is attracting a lot of new activity and is allowing them to seek new cus- tomers due to its added capacity and confidence in print and quality. “We exceeded our expectations for the new Rapida 106 as far as makeready reductions including time and material consumed,” says Smith. “We calculated our ROI payback on a substantial increase in run speed along with a decrease in makeready time.
