MANUFACTURERS and suppliers joined clients and staff to raise a glass to the opening of the new Technical Experience Centre at AM Labels’ headquarters in Kettering.
Guests at the event, sponsored by printing technology manufacturer Epson, inspected the state-of-the-art machinery on show and took a tour of the new centre to see for themselves the range of labelling, barcoding, RFID, robotics and automation equipment available.
The centre was officially opened by Kettering Mayor Cllr Keli Watts, who praised the hard work of AM Labels’ staff.
Managing director Tony Mariani pictured said: “Since relocating to new premises at the beginning of 2022, we have invested heavily in the creation and build of our Technical Experience Centre. Now that the space has officially opened, it will act as a hub for businesses across the UK to experience demonstrations of the latest and most innovative technology available on the market.”
The Technical Experience Centre welcomed visitors over three days. Visitors were also invited to have their own personalised cookies printed using a DTM Eddie printer, which utilises edible ink to print full-colour photos, logos, text and other designs directly on to the surface of food items including cookies, cupcakes, macarons and pastries.
They also had the opportunity to tour the company’s in-house production facility. AM Labels has an extensive label manufacturing operation in a state-of-the-art production area that stocks a large variety of label materials.
“The opening of our new Technical Experience Centre was a great success and, on behalf of the entire AM Labels team, I would like to say a big thank you to everyone that joined us throughout the three-day event,” said Mr Mariani. “We are also extremely grateful for the support received from several of the industry’s leading manufacturers and suppliers, and a special thank you to Epson for being our event sponsor.”
