The group Reynders Label Printing, which owns eight production sites in Europe and Asia including one in India, is renowned worldwide for the quality of its labels. 

Johan Lievens, quality manager at Reynders Etiketten and responsible for the purchase of the ProofRunner, said, “It is of course a pleasure to be part of this new milestone in EyeC´s history. What we particularly appreciate is EyeC´s capacity to evolve together with Reynders, so that we always stay at the forefront of innovation.”

The collaboration between the two companies started in 2005. At that time, Reynders bought first EyeC Proofiler 400 to control the quality of samples along the printing process. This Proofiler was the ninth system sold by EyeC. Later on the printer bought another Proofiler 400 equipped with Braille inspection to face with the requirements of the pharmaceutical market.

Reynders Pharmaceutical Labels installed its first ProofRunner 450, a few months ago. The objective, said Lievens, was to control and re-inspect 100% of the labels of pharmaceutical jobs to make sure that they are free of printing defects or errors made at the pre-press. “The successful collaboration with EyeC has now led to the purchase of this second ProofRunner, this time by Reynders Etiketten,” added Lievens.

Mumbai-based Genius Flexo Machinery headed by Vijay Pareek represents EyeC in India. Pareek said, “EyeC’s Proofiler has been installed at two print companies catering to pharma in India. The solutions will be highlighted at Labelexpo 2014 at our stall 12C37.”
