MGI Digital Solutions Create Opportunity at Ennis
Wednesday 13. October 2010 - Collaboration with MGI Digital Graphic Technology gives Ennis another competitive edge
Print and Apparel leader Ennis, Inc. has unveiled the acquisition of a Meteor DP60 Pro digital press from MGI Digital Graphic Technology at its Ft. Scott, Kansas plant. The award-winning Meteor DP60 Pro is widely regarded in the industry as the most versatile digital press available.
Ennis expects the new digital press capabilities to uncover more print opportunities previously hampered by production capabilities. The multi-substrate press is ideal for short runs and has numerous applications for paper, plastic and envelopes.
Terry Pennington, Vice President Sales at Ennis, said “Our new equipment will allow our distributors to address their customer needs for gift and loyalty cards. The plastic card market continues to grow even during challenging economic conditions. Distributors can now look to Ennis for their direct marketing needs. For instance, we can now offer personalized postcards and other printed media to audiences from 10 to 10,000. Our equipment also has the capability to produce security cards for private companies and government agencies – another market with significant revenue and profit growth.”
The flagship in MGIs digital line, the Meteor DP60 Pro received consecutive Must See em recognition at GRAPH EXPO 2008 and PRINT 09. Key features include true multi-substrate versatility (widest range of paper, plastics & envelopes), sheet sizes up to 40″ in production as a standard feature, laser-safe prints, offset comparable color output (Fogra certified), plus no click charge and an economical total cost of operation.
In addition to the Meteor DP60 Pro digital press, Ennis also utilizes MGIs multi-substrate finishing line, including the UVarnish flood UV coater, PressCard Pro hot platen lamination unit and PunchCard Pro credit card format die cutter.
Ennis has an extensive network of distributors nationwide that will benefit from the flexibility and quality offered by the Meteor DP60 Pro.
