Now in EMEA: HP Pack Ready for Labels

April 24, 2019 By Shellie Terry

We’re excited to announce that the HP Pack Ready for Labels solution featuring Michelman DigiGuard 901 OPV Strengthener and KKLP200 Gloss OPV is now available in EMEA. This quick and easy option is a cost-effective way to create durable labels that can stand up to water, heat, cold and chemicals.

Just add one (1) part of DigiGuard 901 to nine (9) parts KKLP200 to provide durable and effective labels for many applications, including:

  • Cosmetics
  • Household cleaners
  • Auto chemicals
  • Food & beverages
  • Equipment

These results are easier and less expensive to achieve than laminates when creating labels on HP Indigo 20000, WS6XXX or HP 800 digital presses with inline priming units. Learn more about HP Pack Ready for Labels in the video below.

Also, as a partner with Kustom Koatings, we can now offer our EMEA customers an exciting portfolio of varnishes, including:

  • KK682: Gloss varnish with water and mechanical resistance
  • KK684: Extremely durable varnish in matte finish
  • KK810: Foil stampable and thermal transfer printable gloss
  • KK812: Foil stampable and thermal transfer printable matte
  • LED003: Excellent LED UV varnish that doesn’t exhibit yellowing
  • KKLP200: Gloss varnish designed for HP Pack Ready for Labels
  • KKLP (coming soon): Benzo-free version of KKLP200
  • KKLP405 (coming soon): Benzo-free matte varnish for HP Pack Ready for Labels
  • KK718: Press wash that works with most chemistries and rollers

To learn more or to order these varnishes and the HP Pack Ready for Labels solution in the European market, email labelsandpackaging@sone.com or call +49 173 6531949 or +31 437999719.

Pack Ready for Labels: The Solution for Durable Labels

October 5, 2018 By Shellie Terry

If you’re looking to produce labels durable enough to pass heat, chemical and water-resistance testing, S-OneLP is now offering Michelman DigiGuard 901 OPV Strengthener as part of HP’s Pack Ready for Labels solution.

Creating pressure-sensitive durable labels for cosmetics, household cleaners, auto chemicals, food, beverages and more, is now easy to achieve if you operate the HP Indigo 20000 Digital Press, HP Indigo WS6000 Series Digital Presses, and the HP Indigo 8000 Digital Press with inline priming units.

The new DigiGuard 901 OPV Strengthener is a simple and cost-effective mix-in additive that can open HP Indigo digital print service providers to new markets using the equipment you already own.

In the video above, HP introduces a solution that will increase the durability and resistance of labels using the new DigiGuard 901 OPV Strengthener, which is mixed with a standard varnish. After printing labels on an HP Indigo press, we chose a KustomLP gloss varnish, available exclusively at S-OneLP, which produced exceptionally durable results, according HP Solutions Architects during the testing process.

To learn more about creating durable labels, and the best products for the job, give us a call at 941-256-7900, email us at labelsandpackaging@sone.com or visit our Contact page.

S-OneLP Partners with Kustom Group to Offer Specialized Coatings

May 9, 2018 By Shellie Terry

SARASOTA, FLA – S-One Labels & Packaging is pleased to announce a new partnership with Kustom Group to introduce a wide variety of over-print varnishes and coatings designed for both flexo and digitally printed label and packaging markets.

Under the Kustom Koatings brand, S-OneLP will offer standard coatings, such as gloss or matte, and specialty coatings using sand, glitter and many more. The two companies will also jointly create proprietary coatings individually customized and developed under the new co-branded KustomLP product line.

“Utilizing the exceptional products developed by Kustom Group and S-One’s Utopia Digital Technologies’ development lab creates a powerful partnership that is sure to disrupt our industry with all of the new possibilities in coatings and over-print varnishes,” says Ralph Giammarco, Vice President of S-One Labels & Packaging. “And we’re going to bring these customized products to our customers with shorter lead times than they’ve had access to in the past.”

This new partnership will not only allow PSPs to receive products more quickly, but will offer the opportunity to create one-of-a-kind UV-based coatings that perform special functions, such as greater adhesion, more or less gloss levels, light or gritty sand, hieroglyphics effects, scratch-and-sniff or whatever finish a customer’s designer can dream up.

“We have been selling our products through various channels in the past with great success but are looking forward to a more direct approach with a service expert like S-OneLP,” says Michael Gerkin, Jr.; Kustom Group President & COO.  “Having a partner eliminating barriers and creating exposure in the expanding digital, labels and packaging markets is very exciting and a huge advantage to print producers.”

The S-OneLP/Kustom Group partnership adds to the growing list of partnerships for S-OneLP, the direct source for primers, over-print varnishes, pre-laminated films, thermal laminates and customized coatings for HP Indigo press owners.

We Found Innovation and Inspiration All Around Dscoop 2018

April 6, 2018 By Shellie Terry

Dscoop 2018 in Dallas was filled with inspiring moments throughout the 4-day conference, and we couldn’t have been happier to have our first major outing as S-OneLP during the event. Dscoop lived up to its promise of “Unleashing Print,” with many awesome print displays, conversations and industry-changing ideas that all came together inside the Gaylord Texan Conference Center.

When we weren’t talking labels and packaging supplies in our booth, we couldn’t help but be impressed with the innovation going on all around us. HP set up four areas, Storyland, Inkland, Brandland and Thinkland, where they showed off what seemed like endless creative ideas, but also the power of personalizing with print and the HP Inkspiration Awards. On display was the winning entry by one of our customers, Bennett Graphics, pairing HP Indigo 6800 and 10000 technology and Scodix Ultra Pro Digital Press (more on Bennett later).

We were also amazed by the new technology and concepts in the HP booth, which included watching Toray Plastics films run on the HP Indigo 20000, and the invisible security inks from one of our partners, VerifyMe. Adding additional layers of security is becoming an important piece of the package printing puzzle, especially in pharmaceutic and cosmetic markets. Expect to hear much more about the possibilities of print and security in the near future!

Check out how a special light is shown on the invisible ink to display the security code.

Back in our booth, we explained S-OneLP’s role as the only channel partner focused solely on full solutions for digital label and flexible packaging printers. We hope we inspired our booth visitors to “Lead the Pack” into this new frontier. Our booth took on that adventurous theme with a camp-out feel that even included a campfire.

Our next-door neighbors and partner, Michelman, shared some exciting news during Dscoop, which included the launch of DigiPrime® 022, DigiGuard® 222 and DigiGuard® 901 additive, solutions as part of the launch of the HP Indigo Pack Ready for Labels. These products are geared for “durable labels,” such as automotive oils, refrigerated and sterilized goods, and cleaning and bathroom products, and will be available through S-OneLP.

We want to extend our thanks to Edwards Labels in Ventura, Calif., who printed all of our flexible packaging samples, and Bennett Graphics in Atlanta for producing all the labels on the tins throughout our booth as well as the pre-Dscoop mailer we sent to some customers. With these labels and packaging, we got to show booth visitors our materials at work, including:

  • Protect-all pre-laminated films: Metallic snack web, clear snack web and clear stand-up
  • Michelman primers: DigiPrime DP680, DigiPrime DP680 b-1
  • Michelman over-print varnishes: DigiGuard Gloss 110 and DigiGuard Matte 173
  • Kustom Koatings custom spot coatings: KS-494 Imprintable Gloss UV Coating, KS-535, Metallic Angle Dependent UV Coating

Our VP Ralph Giammarco and Global Director of Sales, Tom Hauenstein, gave a presentation in one of the break-out sessions titled, Lead the Pack, How to expand your label printing business into flexible packaging printing. We were thrilled at the turn-out — standing room only! The Q&A session sparked great conversations about how we can all work together to take digital label and packaging printing to the next level.

We are excited to see not only how this ever-evolving market continues to grow, but also how the Dscoop community continues to support it. We’ll see you at Dscoop 2019 in Orlando!
