Digital printer Pinders has produced new packaging prototypes for Stanley Tools using what it said to be the latest in print and cutting technology.
Last year Pinders invested more than GBP300,000 in two new specially imported print and cutting machines.
Now the company has put its technology to a new use by producing a range of packaging prototypes for Stanley in just two days.
The Vutek superwide format digital printing press allows Pinders to produce full coloured, finished, weatherproof graphics directly on to virtually any surface up to two metres wide for projects including packaging, display boards and point of sale material, said the company.
The company's six-metre square specialist Esko cutting table means prints can be cut, routed, perforated or creased in to any shape.
Richard Taylor, business development manager at Pinders, said: "This contract has enabled us to highlight the versatility of the new equipment for the printing, cutting and creasing of packaging.
It's another great string to our bow.
Creating packaging prototypes is traditionally an expensive, drawn out process but our new equipment means that we can produce new prototypes at very short notice and to a very high standard.
And he added: "As well as substantially boosting our high end digital print capacity we have widened the scope for more creative, specially commissioned work like this, which in turn increases our potential customer base.
Stanley is a 163 year-old worldwide manufacturer and marketer of tools, hardware and specialty products for home improvement, consumer, industrial and professional use.
