Backed by a modern production facility equipped with advanced technology, the company delivers high-quality products at competitive costs while strengthening its market position through customer-focused service and reliable support.
Committed to understanding customer needs and providing the most suitable solutions, Seka Etiket offers a comprehensive product portfolio with speed and efficiency. Guided by ethical business values and a focus on sustainable growth, the company aims to create added value, build long-term customer trust, and further strengthen its position as one of the leading companies in Turkey’s label industry.
To further enhance its production capabilities and support its future growth strategy, Seka Etiket has invested in digital label printing technology by selecting the Durst Tau 340 RSC E CMYK + White. The decision followed an extensive technical and commercial evaluation of available solutions.
The investment was driven not only by the machine’s outstanding print quality, but also by its low total cost of ownership, high production efficiency, proven reliability, comprehensive service support, and long-term investment security.
Durst has established itself as one of the world’s most respected manufacturers of industrial digital printing systems through decades of continuous innovation. The Tau RSC platform has become a preferred choice for label converters worldwide, offering industrial-grade performance, exceptional durability, and consistent long-term productivity.
The Durst Tau 340 RSC E delivers a true native resolution of 1200 × 1200 dpi, producing exceptionally sharp text, smooth gradients, vibrant colours, and outstanding image detail across a wide variety of label applications. Its CMYK + White configuration ensures high-opacity white printing on transparent, metallic, and coloured substrates, enabling converters to broaden their product portfolio while consistently achieving premium print quality.
Built on Durst’s proven inkjet technology, the press combines high productivity with low operating costs by optimising ink consumption without compromising print performance. Outstanding system reliability, minimal operator intervention, and reduced material waste contribute to increased production efficiency, lower operating costs, and an attractive total cost of ownership.
The platform’s modular architecture provides additional long-term value by allowing users to upgrade the system as production requirements evolve. Available enhancements include increasing print speeds to 80 metres per minute, adding the ARC automatic registration system for fully automated registration, and integrating Hawk AI for AI-powered print quality inspection. This upgrade path protects the customer’s investment while ensuring the flexibility to respond to future market and production demands.
With the installation of the Durst Tau RSC E 340, Seka Etiket will expand its digital production capacity while benefiting from faster turnaround times, greater efficiency for short-run jobs, advanced variable data printing capabilities, and the flexibility to offer an even wider range of label solutions to its customers.
As LinoSistem, we are proud to support one of Turkey’s leading label manufacturers on its digital transformation journey. We sincerely thank the entire Seka Etiket team for the trust they have placed in us and wish them every success with their new Durst investment. We are confident that this installation will create long-term value for both Seka Etiket and the Turkish label industry.
