CITY OF INDUSTRY, CANilpeter is proud to partner with The Label Shoppe and its continued growth. For more than 80 years, the Gaytan family has served the California region with the highest quality products. Now with the addition of the FA-4* 10-color servo press, the next generation is prepared to carry on this company legacy.

“Due to our nearly 100 percent growth in two years, in February 2016 we saw the need to add a modern flexo press,” VP Ryan Gaytan explains. “This new machine needed to offer automated short run capabilities, long run stability, and impeccable register and impression control. It also needed to comfortably handle a 450-mm. web without stepping up to the 500-mm.+ size category. Nilpeter was the only manufacturer to offer the latter. We interviewed and demonstrated with several leading manufacturers, but none impressed us as much as the Nilpeter FA-4*. The fact that the FA-4* and its clean hand technology, D2D (dot to dot) registry system, and complete automation are the newest innovative features from any manufacturer was also a consideration. We will be one of the first to pioneer these combined features in North America.

“Our team was particularly impressed with the value adding units and options available on the FA-4*. With one machine, we can easily run short runs, long runs, high end wine and spirit labels, ECLs, and critical register jobs that would previously only be possible on web offset or digital presses,” Ryan concludes.
