ELK GROVE VILLAGE, Illinois—SCREEN Americas announces a commitment to purchase the Truepress JET 560HDX by VISOgraphic of Addison, Illinois. The intention marks the Chicago area company’s first entry into roll-fed inkjet capabilities, expanding and complementing its already wide range of offerings.

Family owned and founded in 1946, VISOgraphic is a business-to-business, full-service commercial print provider serving entities across the United States. The company’s work spans a wide range of products including folding carton and packaging, variable direct mail, and web-to-print collateral management systems. Verticals served include travel and leisure, automotive, distribution, pharmaceutical, and nonprofit organizations.

 Equipped with one sheetfed inkjet press, six toner devices and two LED-UV sheetfed offset presses, VISOgraphic needed a continuous roll-fed inkjet press to meet the growing demands of its customers and remain competitive in the marketplace without sacrificing its standards for image quality. Maintaining this commitment to quality while improving the economics for customers was paramount for the business. “Roll-to-roll inkjet technology will offer better price points on many jobs for our customers,” said Bob Dahlke Jr., principal at VISOgraphic. 

Color quality and complex versioning for long runs played a significant role in pursuing the Truepress JET 560HDX for the team at VISOgraphic. “Of all the inkjet presses I’ve seen, the HDX has come the closest to matching offset quality,” said John Dahlke, principal at VISOgraphic. “You can’t tell the difference.”

The lack of skilled labor was also factored into the decision to commit to continuous roll-fed inkjet. “The machine will be easy to learn,” said John Dahlke. “We’re also looking forward to the automation the HDX offers and its ability to print on multiple substrates.”

VISOgraphic is currently producing 65% of its workload on offset equipment. The Truepress JET 560HDX is expected to assume some of this production, especially since direct mail remains a growth segment for the full-service printer. 

About SCREEN Americas
SCREEN Americas, a SCREEN Graphic Solutions group company established in 1967, is a leading provider of digital inkjet production technology serving the commercial, publishing, direct mail, transactional, prime and industrial label, paper pouch, folding carton, and flexible packaging industries. As the world’s largest manufacturer of CTP devices, SCREEN also provides prepress and workflow solutions to further enhance and support print on demand, computer-to-plate production and high-speed variable data printing.

(UPM, Helsinki, 3 December 2024 at 13.00 EET) – UPM Raflatac has made further progress towards a more circular economy for plastics and a future beyond fossils during 2023. The progress towards the 2025 commitments is detailed in the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment 2024 Progress Report by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP). UPM Raflatac joined the Global Commitment as the first label materials company in October 2018.

“As a global partner for sustainable material solutions, the Global Commitment is an important framework for us to transparently showcase our actions in tackling plastic waste and pollution. Through developing our product and service offer, our pledge is to help companies and brand-owners increase the circularity of their packaging,” says Robert Taylor, Sustainability Director, UPM Raflatac.

As highlighted in the report, UPM Raflatac continued its work towards UPM’s 2030 responsibility targets and a future beyond fossils. The company has reduced the scope 1 and 2 emission intensity of its factories by 36% by 2023, compared to a 2015 baseline year. Four of UPM Raflatac’s factories were landfill-free in 2023.

UPM Raflatac offers label solutions that promote recyclability and circularity

In April 2023, UPM Raflatac introduced the PureCycle paper label materials, which are part of UPM Raflatac’s SmartCircle™ portfolio. The PureCycle label materials received European certifications of recyclability from Institut cyclos-HTP for PET and HDPE packaging, verifying their recyclability in the most common recycling processes. This wash-off label innovation separates cleanly from the recycled packaging, resulting in a high-quality recyclate which can then be converted into new materials.

In 2023, UPM Raflatac also gained further recognition for its Ocean Action label, which won the Sustainability Award at the Label Industry Global Awards 2023. The ISCC PLUS certified Ocean Action label is made with ocean-bound plastic through a mass balance approach and is the first of its kind.

UPM Raflatac continued to develop its sustainability services

During 2023, UPM Raflatac continued to grow the impact of its RafCycle™ recycling service. In November 2023, the company launched a partnership with Soprema to promote the recycling of label release liner waste by transforming it into new construction and insulation materials. In the Americas region, investments into organizational capabilities enabled the relaunching of the RafCycle program in mid-2023. All in all, the number of RafCycle participants grew by 10% to 440 between 2022 and 2023.

In 2023 UPM Raflatac received a certificate of validity from leading international assurance service provider, DEKRA, for its Label Life service. Label Life provides essential environmental information on label materials, utilizing the standardized method of life cycle assessment (LCA). The external certificate by DEKRA provides UPM Raflatac’s customers increased assurance in communicating about the environmental impact of their labels.

“The Global Commitment has driven substantial progress in tackling the plastic waste crisis. However, as outlined in the 2024 Progress Report, the world at large is off track, and plastic pollution continues to grow. We at UPM Raflatac are committed to accelerating our actions to deliver a circular packaging industry and a future beyond fossils,” concludes Robert Taylor.
