Lier, Belgium — February 1, 2024 — “Our labels are really sticky shit”, headlines NoviPrint’s website. Humor is always around the corner but one thing is sure, this Dutch label company has a lot of drive and the mission statement is bold: whatever label is needed, they can do it.

Therefore, of course, they need to innovate and stay at the forefront of the industry. NoviPrint identified the need for a higher-volume digital press to accommodate the recent surge in volume and shorter print runs. After carefully considering available options, they chose to go with a Xeikon press for its outstanding application versatility in both food and non-food sectors and its advanced workflow capabilities.

NoviPrint based in Dordrecht, employs 25 people and does business across the Netherlands, Europe, Africa and South America. They produce labels for all kinds of markets like logistics, food, flora, healthcare and industrial. They specialize in Auto-ID for which they are a full-service provider, also offering label printers and scanners.

Their Xeikon press is equipped with ICE toner. This type of dry-toner uses a different core resin to enable fusing at significantly lower temperatures which makes it suitable for printing on heat-sensitive substrates, such as PE and direct thermal paper labels which is a requirement for NoviPrint for their activities in the label market.

NoviPrint's strategic decision to invest in Xeikon technology demonstrates their commitment to providing top-notch label printing services while efficiently adapting to market trends. Xeikon presses are renowned for their reliability, speed, and high-quality output, making them an ideal solution for printers seeking to optimize their operations.
