Macaran announced today they have made a significant capital investment in new, state-of-the-art Gallus LabelMaster printing press.
Specifically, Macaran is set to take delivery of a 17”, 14-color Gallus LabelMaster combination press. This investment adds tremendous new capabilities and allows Macaran to create significant operating efficiencies. It also allows them to continue to deliver on one of their core operating tenants – “creativity without compromise”.
“Macaran is proud to call some of the top consumer brands in the world our customers,” said Nick VanAlstine, CEO of Macaran. “Because we always put their complete satisfaction at the top of our priority list, this new equipment makes complete sense. They are always demanding more, and we listened. With this investment in new equipment, we’re able to offer them a wider range of capabilities. And we can improve quality and decrease quality lead time,” he added.
Gallus LabelMaster
The new Gallus Labelmaster press is 17” wide with 14 color stations. It’s perfectly suited to print a variety of labels using a combination of technologies including rotary screen, flexo, cold foil, lamination and two-sided printing.
Macaran’s Vice President of Operations Nick Noyes worked closely with the team at Gallus to custom configure the new press to meet their very specific requirements. “Because Macaran’s expertise is in the narrow web beverage, spirits, beer, food and health & beauty markets, we are confident the Gallus Labelmaster press platform we have delivered will meet their needs, now and well into the future,” said Andre Blais, National Account Manager & Gallus Account Specialist, Heidelberg.
The new Gallus Labelmaster press will be operational Q1 2022. You can see more of the press specifications here.

One of Macaran’s core operating tenants is “Creativity without Compromise”. This means customers can push the limits of design, knowing that Macaran can deliver the brand image exactly as it was intended. With this capital investment, Macaran extends that by offering almost limitless options when it comes to brand building, creating shelf impact and optimized production and delivery.
