Printing has to work reliably – no downtime, no compromises. We deliver print solutions that stay productive and fit seamlessly into your processes.
What is industrial printing?
Industrial printing makes sure labels are produced reliably even at high volumes and under demanding conditions. Depending on the task, desktop, industrial or mobile printers are used. What matters is how print system, software, label material, ribbon and service work together.
Challenges and the solutions that fit.

What customers say about our print service.
The label printer seemed faulty. We were told honestly that nothing was broken – the driver was simply set up incorrectly. Transport was very quick and the printer works again.
From quotation through delivery to support, everything was excellent. Fast response times and friendly people – it would be good if every supplier worked like this.
Everything went smoothly – very friendly, very fast, very competent.
In our shift operation, printing simply has to work. OPAL did not just recommend a new printer, they actually looked at how we work, which labels we use and where the problems had been. Since the changeover the whole topic has been much quieter. And if something does come up, you reach someone who knows what they are talking about.
We only wanted to replace our old printers. In the end OPAL went through the entire printing process with us and found a few things we had long stopped questioning. Today our label printing runs more stably and takes far less effort.
The best printer is the one you never have to talk about. That is exactly where we are today.
