Reducing Ink Costs

Due to the automated measurement and color consistency of the ink formulations used in the dispenser program, Thoro saves 3-4 man-hours per day in labor as compared to the old manual process. The new system allows for more multitasking by the ink room staff with the freed-up time.

"As a folding carton company with a majority of ink usage being PMS or special match colors, the introduction of the dispenser program was a nice cost savings and a nice way to speed up the customer acceptance of a job," Steiner said.
