We are the UK market leader in high volume variable data barcode labels with an enviable reputation for data integrity in demanding medical and retail markets.
In recent years we have invested millions* in the latest digital and 8+ colour UV flexo technology, colour management, prepress workflows, ERP systems, IT, manufacturing facilities, but most of all our people!
