Ditone Labels is consolidating its reputation as Europe's most progressive label company with the installation of the world's most advanced narrow web press, and the first of its kind in the UK, as part of the Company's £2.5 million investment programme. The new press, a Gallus RCS 330, offers a high degree of automation with servo drive technology to produce the high print quality demanded by industry sectors such as Toiletries, Pharmaceuticals, Beverages and Automotive.

Ditone’s MD, David Stevenson, said: "This purchase represents the major part of  the most significant investment in our company's history. It underlines the strength of our commitment to building further on Ditone's first class reputation, so that we can continue to provide our customers with the highest quality and service and maintain our continuing success in the future. The Gallus RCS is a key component of our strategy to improve quality and deliver value to our customers.”

For Gallus Group UK, the installation of the new RCS 330 at Ditone sets a significant new benchmark in labelprinting productivity. Designed to cater for short to medium run high-quality work, the Gallus RCS 330 tackles the problems of expensive downtime between jobs and substrate waste. Speaking for Gallus, UK Sales Director, Doug Clark said: “We are delighted that Ditone will be the first label converter in the UK to enjoy the benefit of improved productivity that the Gallus RCS 330 offers. The company’s profile and mix of work is ideal for the extensive capabilities of this press.”
