Arriving at the beginning of February, the new addition has been taken on at Bath-based Integrity with a full suite of Prisma workflow and colour management software.

It will support the company’s Clarity Mail service, which aims to meet same-day turnarounds for low to medium volumes of daily post, run through software free to download for clients.

Integrity sales and marketing director Andrew Law said: “This is a great investment for Integrity. The quality of the inks will allow us to take on additional short run commercial print for existing clients.

“The increased outputs will enable us to meet the growing demand for our same-day Clarity Mail service.”

Canon’s VarioPrint i300 is a B3-format inkjet press. It prints up to 300 A4 impressions per minute or 8,700 duplex A4 per hour. At Integrity, it is currently being assembled and tested by Canon technicians ahead of live print runs scheduled for the second week of March.

Integrity Print’s UK-spanning group, which recently added medical bag services through the acquisition of assets from the liquidating Tressanda in July 2019, currently employs 370 staff and turns over £60m. Its secure mailing division alone has £10m annual sales.
