Danish converter IkonPrint A/S, based in Vordingborg, Denmark, has gone digital and become the first Danish printer to buy and install the new Nilpeter digital UV-inkjet product line, Panorama. The move is a direct result of an increased number of incoming orders, creating a need to expand production capacity.

Panorama is Nilpeter’s complete digital solution, offering digital opportunities in a 360° perspective. The Panorama comes as a stand-alone digital press and as a combined digital press and converting solution. The digital press features a simple and intuitive user interface presented on a 42″ color touch screen. The product offers enhanced uptime and outstanding print quality and is backed by an efficient, worldwide service setup.

The first test runs made during IkonPrint’s acquisition of the Panorama convinced the company to skip further testing and jump straight into the production of two customer orders – namely the production of around 500,000 wristbands for Bakken Amusement Park and the labels for Braunstein’s organic Easter beer.

Besides amusement park wristbands and beer labels, IkonPrint’s new digital press will produce labels for industrial coating and paints, wine and spirits, as well as cosmetics.

“Besides the obvious advantages of having a supplier close to our facilities, the high print quality, high uptime, and smart workflow made it an easy decision for us,” says IkonPrint CEO Thomas Nielsen. “And we are free – there are no special production charges, and we can choose the web width most suitable for the individual job. It is crucial for us that the print is durable, water and fade resistant – and that’s exactly what the Panorama product line delivers.”
