Case Study 1
Product: Picking and Destpatch Notes
Client: National Builders' Merchants
Objective: Reduction in errors through printing separate despatch labels and delivery notes
What did we do?: Designed a delivery note with in-built despatch label
Result: One printing substrate, eradicating picking note and despatch label mismatching

Case Study 2
Product: Hydalam Peel-out Label
Client: UK Banks
Objective: To enable PINs to be securely printed on laser (rather than impact) printers
What did we do?: Combined a letter substrate with label material incorporating patented laminate and security screening
Result: One-pass material with security features. through standard bank laser production lines. Redundancy of 'special' impact PIN printing facilities

Case Study 3
Product: Product/Consignment Label
Client: Major UK Parcel Carrier
Objective: To reduce costs through product re-design/re-engineering
What did we do?: Proposed a fundamental re-sizing of the label, so that it could be manufactured 2-wide from a highly cost-effective, stock label material. Introduced Day-Glo inks to improve label visibility.
Result: Cost of 18 million labels (supplied over a 12 month period) reduced by £42,000.
Plus, a much improved product.
