We Put DigiGuard 901 + KustomLP OPV to the Test

By

Last fall we helped HP introduce HP Pack Ready for Labels, a fast and easy solution for creating very durable labels that can stand up to all sorts of conditions. By simply adding the Michelman DigiGuard 901 OPV Strengthener additive to a silicone-free OPV, such as KustomLP 200 Gloss or 405 Matte, you can achieve high-resistance labels that open up new market opportunities for HP Indigo printers.

In January, we printed a new batch of labels to test using the Sutherland Rub Test and tape tests that are industry-standard tests for durability. We digitally printed standard white, clear and metallized BOPP labels on an HP Indigo 6800 Press. Then, we mixed batches of DigiGuard 901 with our KKLP 200 Gloss and KKLP 405 Matte Overprint Varnish in a radio of 9 parts OPV and 1 part 901, as instructed by the HP Pack Ready for Labels process.

After a couple of days, we immersed the labels in hot water and chemicals for tests ranging from 2 to 8 hours, and then applied the Sutherland Rub Tester for 1,000 rubs with 2 pounds of pressure, at 21 cycles a minute. After these vigorous tests, we saw no visible change to the labels.

Check out the video above to see how we did it! Plus, if you’re at Dscoop Edge in Orlando, we’ll have HP Pack Ready for Labels samples in booth #305, or visit our Contact Us page to request a sample. See you in Orlando!

Just days before the event, S-OneLP was named an HP Indigo Media Solutions Partner, offering HP Indigo approved solutions, including primers, coatings, security inks, overprint varnishes and flexible packaging films formulated specifically for digitally printing labels and flexible packaging.

“Every year, HP puts on an excellent event with the top names in the Indigo space,” says Gerard Geurts, who heads business development in EMEA for S-OneLP. “The S-OneLP team has made great progress in strengthening its position in this market and developing strong ties with both customers and partners who are embracing our customer-oriented activities, support and technical capabilities.”

During the VIP event, S-OneLP showcased its long-standing partnership with Michelman along with its flexible packaging products, which are currently available in the Americas and will soon be offered in EMEA. S-OneLP is working to bring its “Sustainable by Design” portfolio of products to market soon, as well, which will include fully compostable and recyclable packaging options.

Also in attendance was Keith Goldstein, COO of VerifyMe. VerifyMe specializes in brand protection products, such as RainbowSecure security inks. S-OneLP is the sales and marketing partner for VerifyMe.

“With just one year in the market, I continue to be amazed by the impact our S-OneLP team has had in the Indigo market,” says Ralph Giammarco, VP of S-OneLP. “We’ve been humbled by the enthusiastic response we’ve received from our customers and partners like HP, Michelman, VerifyMe and many others.”
