You’re at a fork in the road. Do you take the long, winding, uphill route? Or do you take the simpler, more direct one?
The answer seems obvious. Taking the longer route, even if it’s the way you’ve always gone, is slower, harder, and more complicated. However, when it comes to printing, too many label converters are still making the same mistakes at the cost of throughput, efficiency, and profits.
There’s a simpler option, and it’s called Monolox.
Monolox is a print process championed by the team at Pulse Roll Label Products that cuts the fat out of printing. Using a series of high strength, single-pigment inks and a bespoke mixing database, this system lets printers produce any spot colour imaginable using just one anilox. No waste, no fuss: just right-first-time printing without the need to stop everything and change rollers between jobs.
In flexo printing, throughput is foundational for performance. Bottlenecks throttle production and hinder growth, and often, there is no bigger bottleneck than anilox selection. Changeovers and downtime slow operations, limiting production speed and reducing potential profits.
Monolox lets converters bid farewell to expensive downtime and costly changeovers. With no need to change rollers between jobs, one of the main obstacles to efficiency is removed, and businesses can get on with maximising their throughput.
Excess stock is another common barrier to profitability in printing that Monolox helps to solve. Every asset sat around in a warehouse is taking up space, and inefficient processes could lead to more of these being bought than are necessary. More efficient methods that can minimise ink and substrate consumption, or reduce waste, will help to cut expenditure.
Monolox provides just this; by enabling printers to achieve high quality, reliable results on their first try, waste through mistakes is reduced. What’s more, the high strength and vibrancy of the inks involved in Monolox mean it can reduce ink consumption by as much as 30%. Less ink wasted means lower expenditure – as well as less harm to the environment through unnecessary raw material use.
Monolox takes the mystery out of prepress by offering a simpler path. Helping printers achieve bold, bright tones, with less material waste and greater speed, leading to less time wasted and more profit in your pocket. The way forward is clear; next time you’re looking for answers, ask your suppliers how their offering will improve throughput, reduce stock, and improve overall quality and sustainability.
