GLS Packaging Launch
Dimensional Mailer

MINNEAPOLIS – July 1, 2005 – Let’s face it. In today’s competitive marketing environment, it’s imperative that your promotional or product package grabs your customers' attention, delivers your message and does so cost effectively.

Time is money. With more products vying for consumers’ attention, tightened corporate budgets and increased marketing demands, an experienced partner can help you develop, produce and put the finishing touches on your promotional or product packaging, ensuring it’ll get noticed.

Whether you’re looking for an eye-catching dimensional mailer to launch your upcoming marketing campaign or need packaging for your newest product introduction, GLS has the answer. As your provider of Integrated Communication Solutions, we are proud to announce that we have added promotional and product packaging to our long list of specialized marketing solutions.

We’re committed to being your full service marketing partner and have the expertise and equipment to manage your project from start to finish; beginning with concept development and creative through production and distribution. We eliminate the need for multiple vendors, therefore saving you valuable time and money.

At GLS, we not only have the professionals, we also have the equipment to get your job done. Our equipment ranges from PreMedia to Digital and Sheetfed Presses to Finishing; each working together perfectly to complete even the toughest projects.

Recently we added the most advanced folder-gluer available in North America, the Bobst Fuego 110 A-2 CS, to our equipment offering. The Bobst Fuego sets a new standard in the folding carton industry by producing a great variety of cartons, in a wide range of sizes, at unbeatable production speeds, with remarkable quality.

The Fuego features:

  • A maximum working width up to 43 5/16"
  • Straight line, standard crash-lock bottom and 4-corner box (without lid) processing
  • CD sleeve folding and side flap gluing
  • The ability to convert most carton stocks including litho label mounted on E-flute
  • Operation speeds up to 300 meters per minute

The Fuego is equipped with an hhs® Xtend® high pressure cold glue system and has eight glue guns for precision sealing of your carton. Numerous quality control features built into the Fuego ensure a consistent and high-quality finish.

To mark our entrance into the packaging arena, our “Wild About Packaging" marketing campaign was recently launched. This campaign featured a three-dimensional promotional package that was designed, produced and printed, kitted and shipped entirely in-house. This package was designed to be a highly technical piece in order to showcase our outstanding printing quality and ability to fold complicated pieces on the Fuego. The promotional package contains a five-minute video that is embedded on a CD that follows the package through the production process and also highlights the technical features of the Fuego. Also, the promotional package contains a package of wildflower seeds to plant in your garden. Did you receive your package? If not, contact your GLS account representative at 1-888-646-7277.
