“Consistency and repeatability were some of our biggest challenges. The CDI Crystal and XPS Crystal have eliminated all our consistency issues with undeviating performance plate after plate.”
High Volume, Low Consistency
Taylor Prime Labels & Packaging operates five production plants across the United States, delivering high-quality labels and flexible packaging. Print volumes range from runs as small as 250 labels into the millions.
Despite their impressive scale and range, they faced critical challenges in flexo platemaking—particularly around consistency and repeatability.
According to Scott Kleven, Prepress and Projects Manager, their existing equipment was limited by aging infrastructure and format constraints. Therefore, it was unable to accommodate newer screening technologies, or the high volume of plate production required.
Taylor Prime Labels & Packaging needed to upgrade their equipment for their business to grow. After comparing Esko solutions to other offerings, and having worked with Esko in the past, Taylor Prime Labels & Packaging selected Esko as the best solution for their current and future needs.
“Esko checked all the boxes for what we were looking for. The hardware is reliable and produces consistent results plate after plate. The screening options in the software offered solutions for all our different print technologies.”
