Planet Group, a Canadian provider of corrugated packaging and point-of-purchase solutions, has expanded its digital printing capabilities with a Domino X630i digital corrugated press at its Hughes Decorr facility in Concord, Ontario.
The installation strengthens Planet Group’s ability to deliver high-quality, full-colour digital corrugated packaging with greater speed and flexibility, supporting brands from concept to production.
“The Domino X630i gives us the ability to offer high-quality, full-colour digital printing directly on corrugated with minimal setup time,” says Stephen Longmire, VP of Sales, Hughes Decorr. “It allows us to help customers move faster, reduce inventory, and maintain strong brand consistency across programmes.”
Planet Group identified digital printing as an increasingly important capability to meet shifting customer demand for shorter runs and versioning, including pilot programmes, limited releases, or retailer-specific designs, where conventional printing processes were proving cost-prohibitive.
The Domino X630i was chosen for its fast-drying aqueous ink technology, system robustness, and strong technical support.
“For us, the Domino Difference is the combination of a robust technical platform with a genuine partnership approach,” says Mike Bannerman, General Manager, Hughes Decorr. “It’s not just about the hardware – it’s about collaboration, optimisation, and long-term success.”
With the new press installed, the business can produce packaging without the delays and costs associated with printing plates, while maintaining consistent colour across repeat jobs. Shorter make-ready times enable rapid prototyping, efficient short production runs, as well as fast turnaround of repeat orders – all in a relatively compact footprint.
“We are pleased to support Planet Group as they expand their digital corrugated printing capabilities with the Domino X630i. Their focus on agility, speed‑to‑market, and high-impact retail solutions fits well with what the X630i was designed to deliver,” said Mike Barry, DP Commercial Director North America, Domino. “This installation demonstrates how brands and converters can reach new levels of flexibility in corrugated printing – whether for prototyping or full-scale production.”
