VanDerEng offers a complete ecosystem of print solutions as an extension of our label solutions. This enables customers in horticulture, industry, retail, and food to produce sustainable, high-quality prints themselves, directly within their own process.
In a professional environment, printing technology is about more than costs durability, quality, speed, and process compatibility are just as important. Scroll through the four core technologies to discover what best fits your situation.
Media choices, print durability, and speed vary greatly per technology. We always advise based on your process: volume, environment, print quality, costs, and software integration.
| When to choose what? | Our quick take |
|---|---|
| High output, fast black-and-white documents | Laser (e.g., Oki) |
| Full-colour branding and high resolution | Inkjet (e.g., Epson) |
| Industriële, duurzame labels & barcodes | Thermal Transfer (Toshiba / Novexx / Zebra) |
| Temporary or short-term labels | Direct Thermal |
Prints on heat-sensitive material that darkens when heated. No ribbon or ink required.
A heated ribbon (wax, wax/resin, or resin) transfers ink onto the label material.
Liquid ink is sprayed onto paper or label material through printheads.
Toner is fused onto paper or laser-compatible labels using heat.
Based on real-world experience, reliability, and support in B2B environments, we recommend the following brands per technology.
Strong in colour-LED and mono-laser. Ideal for high-speed, workgroup usage. Think fast A4 output with sharp text.
Known for high resolution and vivid colours. Ideal for branding, promotions, and detailed prints.
Industrial-grade reliability, broad ribbon compatibility, and excellent performance in harsh environments and high workloads.
Just like our LMPPS approach for labels, we look for the optimal combination of technology, media, and workflow in printing.
