Afinia Label has announced a partnership with OpenBox Group, a converter that tests, qualifies and stocks Memjet compatible labels for use with the L801 Label Printer.
“OpenBox Group makes it even easier for our customers to find a wide range of label materials, sizes and shapes to print their labels in-house and on-demand,” says Mike Atkins, Afinia Label’s national sales manager. “The people at OpenBox have a long history of label converting and were the first to use our L801 Label Printer in a commercial environment. OpenBox Group has expertise in Memjet technology, and access to both common and unique label substrates. This combination allows OpenBox Group to provide a full portfolio of Memjet printable labels in paper, film and vintage facestocks.”
OpenBox offers a number of Memjet-compatible label materials, as well as a line of other labels. They can provide cut, or uncut stock. They have also created a Memjet Compatible Stock Sample Book that contains six labelstock examples with images printed on the Afinia Label L801 Label Printer. The stocks are White Poly, Frosted Clear Poly, a wine label sample, a coffee label sample, High Gloss Paper, and Matte Paper. More substrates are in the works.
“We’ve been working with Afinia Label for quite some time. With the success of Memjet-based label printers, the timing was right to put together a convenient source for materials for the Memjet-compatible label market,” says Dave Shirley, co-founder of OpenBox.
Afinia Label emerged in the label industry in 2012 when it collaborated with Memjet to co-develop a commercially viable narrow web label printing system.
