Digital Printing Has Arrived!
We are now pleased to offer full digital printing capabilities for labels and flexible packaging along with printing for shrink sleeve applications. Digital printing is used first and foremost when qualtity of the print has to be the number one focus and where there are shorter runs and/or many changes to SKU’s in the run. We use an HP Indigo press. For more information on this exceptional printing technology, please give us a call. We will be happy to provide samples from the work we have done and are currently doing.

Read MoreIs The Economy Slowing?
I am hearing a great deal lately on how the economy is slowing. People are repeating what they are hearing on the news. I believe this will be self fulfilling prophecy. If you think your business is soft, it probably will be. There are two things we are doing at PaladinID to help companies in these times. One, use our buying power to keep our product prices as low as possible. Two, keep our overhead low. We are proud to say, have accomplished both of these things. If you are not happy with you current vendor or if your prices on labels and ribbons are increasing, we would...

I just hear word of a new product that is being released from ID Technology, one of my vendor partners. This is a new flexible packaging printer that will print on Tyvek, PD, PP and paper.

This causes premature print head wear and poor print quality. I now have a ribbon that solves this problem called the “Clean Start” ribbon. It is available on all ribbon formulations, wax, wax/resin and full resin ribbons. There is a cleaning card built right into the ribbon leader. When you load a fresh ribbon...

I don’t know about you but I am getting sick and tired of the prices of label going up everytime I turn around. My suppliers have given me three increases in the past 14 months. I have been lucky to manage my stock with quantity purchases so I would not have to raise my prices to my customers. I have locked my paper pricing in for 2009. We are also working with our customer base and showing them ways to improve their purchasing ways. I am hoping that we see a slow down in the increases soon, it is not good for anyone. We are doing everything we can to maintain our...
