Update – 17th February 2025
GEW Inc’s Service Team completed another US-based install on the 10th-14th of February at Versa-Tags, Inc. Versa-Tags, who are based in Cuba, Missouri, had two industry-leading 30cm GEW E2C lamps installed to their Mark Andy 2200 press.
The company is a leader in printed automotive dealer supplies, having been active in this market for over 50 years. However, over the past 15 years, they have focused on purchasing state-of-the-art equipment, which has allowed them to manufacture decals, doming, over-laminates, soft vinyl key tags, signage, and floor graphics; they have become an industry leader by eliminating all set-up fees and all die charges for these products.

GEW recently installed six 395nm, 45cm LeoLEDs onto a Mark Andy 4150 11-colour 16″ press. The installation was conducted by our GEW, Inc Service Team on behalf of Grean Rapids Label, who manufacture high performance pressure-sensitive label solutions and label management for industries that demand excellence.
The installation took place at their site in Michigan on the week of the 20th of January, with the LED system retrofitted to work alongside an older GEW mercury system that was already in place.

Update – 4th February 2025
In the first entry of our “GEW installations” series, we bring you the installation of a 45cm, 6-lamp E2C system on a customer’s Mark Andy 4150 8-colour press. The installation of GEW’s industry-renowned E2C system took place in January ’25 at the family-owned company in Hereford, who focus on the manufacturing of absorbent materials.
Following the installation, the company is now in a position to upgrade to UV LED, when ready. This is because E2C lamps are compatible with GEW’s patented ArcLED technology, which allows printers, coaters and converters to quickly switch between UV arc lamps and UV LED arrays on press.
