NEWPORT, KY—Printing company Steinhauser purchased and installed an MPS EF 530 flexo press. The new press marks the first MPS press for the fourth generation Kentucky-based woman-owned business.

Replacing older label printing equipment, Steinhauser’s new 12-color EF 530 press was installed in January 2019.

Press performance, demonstrations at the MPS Green Bay Demo & Applications Center, and a team approach to find the best solution for Steinhauser’s needs led to the decision for MPS.

Tara Halpin, CEO and owner of Steinhauser, said: “We are 100 percent pleased with support and service from MPS. Our new press provides the increased productivity needed to meet our customers’ high-quality demands in flexo printing.”

Involved in the sale was Dilip Shah, Sr., technology and application support manager at MPS Systems North America. “Steinhauser was looking for the right equipment to print pressure-sensitive labels and shrink sleeves at high speed. After an in-depth consultation, we presented our press capabilities that echoed their requirements in various demonstrations. I’m thrilled Steinhauser is pleased with both our technology and expertise in overcoming printing challenges.”

The installation of the new MPS EF 530 will be celebrated with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony on March 15.
