Branded Totes and Trays Now Available in 48hr Turnaround
27th March 2017
Goplasticpallets, the UK’s leading independent distributor of returnable plastic transit packaging (RPTP), has invested in a new, state-of-the-art, thermal transfer machine. The new purchase comes in response to growing customer demand for branded totes and trays, in particular for small quantities of boxes with printed identification markings. Traditionally, printed containers have only been available in very large quantities and as a result, come with a long lead time.
The new Coditherm H-PAD offers customers even more flexibility, printing in batches as small as a few hundred units, within two or three working days. Based at Goplasticpallets’ main warehouse in Eastbourne, home to the company’s vast stock inventory, operatives can now accurately print logos and identification markings such as part product numbers, barcodes, SKU and QR codes, onsite immediately from order processing.
The Coditherm H-PAD, a pneumatic printing machine, uses high-power, thermal transference to print onto recessed areas of structured plastic containers, such as Automotive KLTs, Euro containers, food-grade boxes and bail-arm crates.
The great advantage of this machine is its ability to imprint on diverse materials, including PE (Polyethelene) and PP (Polyproplene) and within very small margins. Manufactured in Italy by Eidos, the Coditherm H-PAD has a good reputation for both quality and accuracy.
Goplasticpallets, who pride themselves on offering a quick and customer-focused service, has experienced remarkable growth over the past two years. The addition of this new printing machine will further strengthen their offering, enabling them to provide a fast turnaround on printed small containers.
