Shrink sleeves offer so many benefits as a packaging solution, as we’ve been discussing lately (see our blog on shrink sleeve benefits here). But perhaps you are a small company who only needs a small amount of shrink sleeves, or perhaps you want to give shrink sleeves a try but only want to dip your toes and not dive in with an order for hundreds of thousands of shrink sleeves. Luckily for you, we’ve got you covered. As with just about all of our labels, at Dion we have the capabilities to print shrink sleeves both digitally and flexographically. Even if your order is a lower quantity, we can produce the perfect shrink sleeve for your brand and products!

As a refresher, flexographic printing, also called conventional printing, is a process that uses flexible printing plates mounted on rotating cylinders. Labels printed flexographically can be printed with 4 Color Process (CMYK) or with an extended range of spot colors. At Dion we provide custom color matching, dynamic quality control, and in-line video registration on every label we print with our flexo presses. Flexographic printing also utlitizes a vast array of cutting dies including special shapes and sizes, as well as the ability to print on a massive number of different substrates. If you require a large number of shrink sleeves or custom options, flexographic printing may be an excellent print method for you.

Until fairly recently, digital printers didn’t have the capabilities to print on shrink film. However, all of our HP Indigo printers are now more than up to the task of handling shrink and other flexible packaging. This advance is amazing for our customers who now are able to place smaller orders of shrink sleeves while still achieving the quality Dion prides itself on for our traditionally printed items. Not to mention HP Indigo color quality on every label, no matter the substrate it’s printed on!

Let our team of label experts help you with all your flexible packaging goals. With our conventional and digital print methods, the possibilities for your shrink sleeve are as big as your imagination. Our team will evaluate your project to find the ideal print method.

Parent Company Inovar Continues Growing: New Headquarters in Dallas, TX

by Gina Lisella • 21 Nov, 2023
As part of Inovar Packaging Group, Dion Label Printing is working to creating a world-class enterprise by building an innovative platform to drive sustainable growth and handle the increasingly complex demands of our diverse range of customers. Over the last several years, our parent company Inovar has acquired new facilities at a quick pace, including, most recently: Cimarron Label in Sioux Falls, SD and Amherst Label in Milford, NH. Acquiring is a major part of Inovar’s strategy to grow the company and better serve our customers and our internal teams, and we are concurrently working to expand our capacity, capabilities, and service offerings in other ways. To that end Inovar has recently moved into a newly renovated headquarters building in Dallas, TX. Located just a short distance from Inovar’s previous facility headquarters, the new location was built to showcase the mission of our brand. At triple the size of the last facility, this brand new building with its huge increase in both office and production space will enable us to provide even more solutions and support to our customers. The new facility is not just larger, however. In order to increase our capacity, capabilities, and offerings, and give our customers the highest quality labels and packaging solutions, we’ve added two new flexographic presses and a new digital press. Our Director of Marketing, Ashley Stewart, states, “the additional capacity, services, and embellishment capabilities will greatly increase our ability to meet all the requirements of even the most demanding brands. The team is thrilled to debut the new facility and showcase our capabilities to our existing and future customers.”  We also have other expansions in the works. An addition of almost 20,000 additional square feet of production and warehousing space will expand Inovar’s Milwaukee, WI, location, Flexo-Graphics, and its presence in the area. We are excited for the opportunities our growth provides us to continue our rise as a premier label and packaging solution provider. Contact us today and let our growth help fuel yours.
