PALO ALTO, Calif.—Traco Manufacturing Inc., a printer and manufacturer of shrink films, machines, and equipment, has installed an HP Indigo press ws4500 to increase its ability to offer customers high-quality printed shrink sleeve products with a fast turnaround time and customization.

Prior to installing the HP Indigo press ws4500, Traco offered printed shrink sleeves and film produced overseas with rotogravure technology. The Orem, Utah-based company decided to install the digital press based on increased customer demand for faster turnaround times, customized text and images and shorter run lengths.
