Last November, Thoro Packaging (Corona, California) launched FoldedColor, an online web-to-print platform for designing and ordering custom folding cartons. The site’s efficient production workflow paired with the support of a Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 75-8+LYYL Anicolor Press, provided FoldedColor with a unique opportunity in the custom packaging segment.

According to CEO Jan Steiner, the XL 75 Anicolor has significantly increased production speeds across the plant and provided enhanced colour consistency and fewer makeready sheets. The Anicolor also allows for better short-run capabilities with the same offset quality and speed advantages.
The Speedmaster XL 75 Anicolor lowers the costs for short-run printing by using 90% less waste sheets than traditional offset. With maximum production speeds of up to 15,000 sheets per hour and a short 1:1 anilox ink train, the press delivers high print quality along with quick and even inking, all preset via prepress – meaning no ink settings on the press, said the OEM.

“With FoldedColor, we aim to provide the best experience for custom packaging through a streamlined online workflow that makes the designing and printing process easy, convenient and faster than ever, without compromising the quality our customers deserve,” said Patrick Green, FoldedColor’s Director of Business Development.
FoldedColor offers custom-printed product packaging in a six-step process. Customers can choose from a variety of standard box styles and have the option to design directly on the website or upload a PDF. Orders usually ship within 7 to 10 business days.
