Cover Label (CONT’D FROM PAGE 41) created unexpected demand, and we doubled our busi- ness that year.” The Domino digital press didn’t just serve short runs—it opened new doors. “We saw multi-SKU work driving de- mand,” says Wafer. “Having digital allowed us to win cus- tomers who later gave us flexo work, too.” Their business has been growing at such an excelle- rated pace that Cover Label decided to transition to the Domino N730i. “We went from 600 dpi to 1200 dpi, and from 25–30 meters per minute on the N610i, to 60–70 meters per min- ute on the N730i,” says Wafer. “That alone doubled our capacity. The improved resolution also lets us print small text and fine gradients with unmatched clarity.” With enhanced capacity, Cover Label has shifted lon- ger jobs to digital. The Domino N730i also created new workflow oppor- tunities. “We noticed our finishing equipment couldn’t keep up,” said Wafer. “We’re now adding a semi-rotary die cutter to complement the laser system.” Looking ahead, Cover Label sees continued expansion, both in operations and technology. “We want to grow to full capacity, then expand outside of California,” says Fyr- wald. “We’re also exploring other packaging formats like shrink sleeves, flexible packaging, and folding cartons.”

ABG Launches New Flex Pack Division With Galaxy Packtech
A B Graphic International (ABG) has launched a new di- vision, ABG Flex Pack. The move marks a strategic step forward for the company, expanding its experience in lam- ination and finishing into this high-growth sector. ABG has many years of experience in the field, manu- facturing thermal laminators, pouch finishing systems such as the Digicon 3000, and shrink sleeve machines that are installed in markets worldwide.

Innovation Pillars ABG Flex Pack combines three key pillars of innova- tion. First is the launch of a new ThermoLam product; the second is the addition of pouch-making solutions through an exclusive partnership with Galaxy Packtech; and a third innovation is on the horizon, set to further enhance the appeal and functionality of flexible packaging. The details will be revealed later this year. Galaxy Packtech is a family-run business with 24 years of experience and more than 1,500 installations worldwide.
