The Packaging Experts begins Web-to-Print offering with Roland VersaUV

March 1, 2019 Off By Sebastian Reisig

A ground-breaking new service is about to be launched by The Packaging Experts, thanks to the installation of a Roland DG VersaUV LEF-200 flatbed UV printer.

Founded over five years ago by Paul Marsh, The Packaging Experts has grown to comprise a team of nine and, last year, to move into new premises in Basingstoke, Hampshire. This large space has enabled The Packaging Experts to invest in new technology, including a Roland VersaUV LEF-200 benchtop printer, supplied by printMAX in December 2018.

“I spent 20 years in print management, and when my employer went into administration it was the perfect opportunity for me to start running my own business,” explains Paul Marsh, Managing Director, The Packaging Experts. “I’ve always been a big advocate of Roland so was looking forward to investing in a Roland system when we had space for the new printing equipment.”

Paul was already very familiar with VersaUV technology having partnered with Roland and printMAX on several fantastic marketing projects, including one notable personalisation campaign for confectionery brand Kinder. Over Christmas 2017, two Roland VersaUV LEF-12i systems were installed in John Lewis’s Oxford Street department store and used to print personalised messages directly to Kinder Surprise packaging.
