SATO Named "Best of the Best" for Labeling Expertise
Prestigious international recognition for printing excellence.
Tokyo, Japan, September 20, 2016 --(PR.com)-- SATO (TOKYO:6287), a leading global provider of Auto-ID solutions that empower workforces and streamline operations, announced that SATO Printing received the Best of the Best Award at Label Industry Global Awards 2016. It was awarded in the letterpress category for the premium Japanese tea, “Keikacha.” It received the award at a ceremony held at Labelexpo Americas 2016 in Chicago on September 13.
The "Best of the Best" Awards are presented to L9 World Label Awards winners in five categories—Combination Printing, Letterpress Printing, Offset Litho Printing, Flexographic Printing and Digital Printing.
Features that were recognized for Keikacha include metallic printing, varnish printing and laminate coating which give a premium look and feel. The finished product showcases SATO’s technical printing capability to regulate printing pressure and ensure accurate printing registration.
Ensuring print registration accuracy and avoiding patchy halftone patterns (when tiny halftone dots are blended in print reproduction) were challenges requiring trial and error to overcome. The Label Industry Global Awards 2016 Best of the Best Award is a testament to SATO’s strong teamwork as it strives to further increase its technical and design capability.
