Dantex Group has announced that it has achieved the internationally recognized “Made in Britain” accreditation for its Pico range of digital presses.

To qualify for the mark, manufacturers must pass a stringent 150-point checklist to guarantee that the manufacturing supply chain is “truly British.” Only those products that pass this test are permitted to carry the mark. The Made in Britain accreditation is seen as an international seal of excellence domestically, in Europe and across the world.

Dantex, already a specialist supplier of water-wash photopolymer plates and processing equipment, established its digital division in 2015, principally to develop its own range of digital presses, launched under the Pico brand. Since then, Dantex has become a recognized name in the UV inkjet digital label press arena, manufacturing up to eight digital presses at any one time, with a dedicated team of designers and top-flight engineers and using only the very best parts and equipment supplied by British companies.

On account of its rapid growth, the digital division recently moved to a new 22,000 square foot manufacturing site in Corby, Northants. From this site, the division’s highly skilled workforce undertakes R&D, design, assembly, build and shipping, thereby providing their customers with the benefits of a closeness in British manufacturing and engineering to the very highest standards.

“Our Made in Britain accreditation is highly significant as it gives our customers complete confidence in our manufacturing, and that we are using the very best parts and equipment to build our presses,” says Ben Danon, Dantex Group CEO. “Our Pico range is a trusted product line, which we are continually developing and enhancing – so for us, being able to conduct R&D, design and build our presses on a single site in Britain gives us a distinct advantage, tangibly adding value and quality for our customers.”
