DENMARK • Ikonprint A/S from Vordingborg has taken a digital leap by becoming the first Danish printer to buy and install the new Nilpeter Panorama digital UV-Inkjet product line. The move is a direct result of an increased number of incoming orders, and thus an urgent need to expand production capacity.
The first test runs made during Ikonprint’s acquisition of the Panorama were of such high quality that they decided to skip further testing and jump straight into the production of two customer orders – namely the production of around 500,000 wristbands for Bakken Amusement Park and the labels for Braunstein’s organic Easter beer. Besides amusement park wristbands and beer labels, Ikonprint’s new digital press will produce labels for industrial coating and paints, wine & spirits, as well as cosmetics.
Ikonprint was founded in 2006 and mainly produces safety labels, logistics labels, and thermo labels, but also has a great deal of expertise in the production of RFID-labels. Radio Frequency Identification is widely used for administration of library books. The company also delivers labels for libraries and logistics companies all over the world and exports roughly 70% of their production.
