Benefits for Brands and 3PL Companies
Frank Pennisi, CEO of EFI, emphasizes the transformation digital printing brings to packaging. It turns a simple box into a key branding tool, especially valuable to consumer packaged goods, retailers, and third-party logistics (3PL) providers. Combining Packsize’s production technology with EFI’s vivid, fast printing creates a streamlined, distinctive packaging solution.
“Digital print transforms a box into a powerful, often-overlooked opportunity for brands, particularly consumer packaged goods and retailers, as well as 3PL companies. When you combine Packsize’s technology with EFI’s ability to deliver vivid, full-color custom graphics at speed, you create a differentiated solution that not only simplifies operations through in-line production, but also elevates the customer experience with memorable, personalized packaging.”
