Kroschke GmbH selects HP Indigo WS6800 Digital Press to address unique customer needs

Wednesday 26. August 2015 - Kroschke Signs International GmbH, one of the largest manufacturers of signs and technical labels in Europe, has purchased a new HP Indigo WS6800 Digital Press. With the new technology, Kroschke will be able to produce a wide variety of labeling products quickly and cost effectively, and respond to the specific needs of each individual customer.

“As unique as each company is, so are its requirements. The new press is therefore a direct investment in the satisfaction of our customers,” says Rolf Maaß, Managing Director of Kroschke Signs International GmbH. “HP has helped us to simplify our complex workflows, giving us great confidence, and we look forward to continuing and expanding on this successful partnership in the future.”

The Braunschweig-based company prints a wide range of signs and labeling products for the safety and regulatory markets, including inspection stickers and labels for hazardous substances. The company’s printing facilities serve their own products as well as those of external customers.

The HP Indigo WS6800 Digital Press prints at speeds of up to 60 meters per minute on substrates with a maximum web width of 340 millimeters and a maximum thickness of 450 microns. It is designed for a wide range of substrates including self-adhesive labels, shrink sleeves, wrap-around labels, tube laminates or cartons. By default, the machine prints in 4-color mode with HP IndiChrome technology, but 6- and 7-colour printing is possible.
