Upgraded from its predecessor Ricoh Pro C7200x and launched it in India by Monotech Systems last year, Ricoh Pro C7500 is an epitome of 11-colour printing encompassing traditional CMYK and a fifth colour station toners for white toner, gold, silver, neon pink, neon yellow, clear, and invisible red for adding extra effects and elements to prints. “The addition of this flexible digital production press to our facility has empowered us to benchmark new quality and innovation in label printing,” said Mayank Singh, proprietor of Color 8 Company.
He added, “Our production facility is equipped with a complete portfolio of machines, comprising a four-colour flexo roll label printing press, Xerox Versant 180 digital production press and a string of finishing equipment including cutting plotter and others. However, we have gained a new approach to adding captivating textures and effects to label prints using the fifth colour station of Ricoh Pro C7500. For example, we now deliver bespoke effects of PET clear in labels using this digital press.”
Since its inception in the year 2018, Color 8 Company has been predominantly into label printing. They work for several reputed brands from diverse market segments. “Label is our mainstay in business. Around 90% of our overall activities involve label printing and a little bit of commercial and others,” Singh said, adding that the label printing market is prone to innovative ideas that would never turn into products without capable machines like the Ricoh Pro C7500.
With a team of 15 highly proficient professionals for label printing and more, Color 8 Company has a vast client base in Delhi-NCR. “Nowadays, we are striving for making our end products, which mean labels, to achieve striking results through speciality printing or effects such as glossy, matte or glitter surfaces. In this, combining print layers with special textures can get catchy end results, which is now possible only with the Ricoh Pro C7500 for us and for this we are so grateful to Monotech Systems,” concluded Singh.
