At Pack Expo Las Vegas 2023, our team received valuable feedback from customers and booth visitors, highlighting common themes and challenges. These insights have shed light on the problems that many visitors are actively seeking solutions for.

At Buskro, we are proud to be experts in the field of print solutions and data management. When customers encounter a problem, we take pride in our industry-leading knowledge and consulting skills to provide them with a solution.

The four main problems, challenges, or pain points communicated to us by show attendees at Pack Expo 2023 include:

  • Problem: The current process of ordering and storing preprinted SKU boxes is costly and inefficient. It leads to wasted or damaged products, delays in material changes, and uncertainty in batch sizes when placing orders. 
  • Solution: Introducing the Buskro Package Personalization Solution (PPS). With PPS, you can print directly on blank materials and personalize them as needed, eliminating the need for excessive inventory and reducing product waste and costs. This solution is perfect for smaller batch sizes, while also capable of handling high-volume printing on demand. Additionally, Buskro offers seamless integration of inkjet heads, tabbers, and labellers onto third-party transports to meet the specific needs of our customers’ production environments.

  • Problem: Many businesses face the challenge of not being able to print directly on difficult materials or variably print individual data. As a result, they have to use preprinted or blank labels, which leads to a more inefficient process when personalizing their products. In some cases, they even have to apply the labels by hand, depending on the volume of work. This not only increases labor costs but also lowers the overall system throughput.
  • Solution: To address this issue, Buskro offers Print and Apply or Apply and Print solutions. Alternatively, our industry-leading printheads allow you to print directly on your material. Our print technologies can be customized with an ink and material profile specifically designed to print on YOUR material in ways you may not have thought possible.

  • Problem: Many operating systems face limitations when it comes to printing multiple jobs quickly and efficiently. These limitations include significant downtime, labor-intensive processes for switching between jobs, and a lack of versatility in printing on different materials and sizes.
  • Solution: To address these challenges, Package Personalization offers custom-based solutions with a modular design and an open architecture. This ensures that the system can meet both current and future needs. Additionally, Buskro’s industry-leading Compose IQ Workflow software enables efficient storage and management of all print jobs. With this software, users can easily save and recall print jobs, allowing for seamless switching between different system configurations.

  • Problem: Many businesses struggle with the challenge of consistently producing high-quality, full-color prints using a single print technology or type of ink. This can lead to issues such as the need for expensive UV printing on corrugated materials or limitations in printing on certain materials due to ink adhesion constraints. 
  • Solution: Buskro provides a comprehensive solution with their Quantum 4C product and Apollo Wide Array 4C. These offerings allow businesses to achieve full process color printing using both UV and aqueous inks. Additionally, Buskro offers a range of monochrome printheads, each with unique features tailored to meet the specific needs of customers.
