The recent Irish Print Awards saw Addprint win the Luxury Packaging Printer of the Year award for its cosmetic beauty box project for Bourjois Paris.
Based in the Dublin area, Addprint Ltd is a company that has excelled in the cosmetic PoS market and the recent Irish Print Awards has seen the company rewarded for its outstanding print performance.
The cosmetic beauty box that was produced for Bourjois Paris was created by printing the exterior of the box with its recently acquired Mimaki CJV300-160 printer-cutter and Managing Director, Robert Doyle explains the reason for the purchase: “Our choice to invest in the Mimaki CJV300 was threefold. The quality of the print is exceptional and we need that guarantee because a large amount of the work we do is close-up Point of Sale displays. The CJV300 also gives us great colour vibrancy and the colour matching from one print to another is superb which is crucial for the bright colour consistency required with cosmetic brands. We also wanted a printer that was easy to use. Our previous solvent printer required two people to load & unload but the new Mimaki CJV300 is a one man job and we can leave it unattended, which makes great business sense.”
The Mimaki CJV300 was supplied by authorised Mimaki reseller Reprocentre, who were also involved in the Irish Print Awards through sponsorship of one of the categories. Sales Director Eoin Honan explains: “We think it’s important to celebrate and support the printing industry in Ireland and have been sponsors of the Large Format Digital Printer of the Year award for some time, so we were delighted that one of our own customers had won an award; it’s well deserved and Addprint has produced some impressive stuff.”
Winning an Irish Print Award isn’t the only excitement within the ranks at Addprint. “We’ll shortly be moving to a new ‘Digital Print House’,” reveals Doyle. “We’ve been working on our new premises since last year and soon we’ll be able to showcase the many fantastic Point of Sale materials and products we can supply. It’s an exciting time for the company.”
