Every business faces challenges, but it’s how you respond that really sets you apart. At Premier Markings, we don’t just print labels—we help solve problems and build long-lasting relationships by providing real solutions. One of our most rewarding stories is how we helped a customer who was unhappy with the quality they were getting from their previous supplier. Through our commitment and expertise, we solved their immediate issue and turned a stressful situation into a lasting partnership
The Problem: Laminate Failures and Colour Inaccuracies
When our customer came to us, they were in the middle of a tough situation. Their labels, which featured beautiful graphics and intricate designs, were not laminated correctly. The laminate that their previous supplier had used was peeling off, leaving the labels looking unprofessional and worn out. They needed a printer who would take the care to produce the labels correctly.
When they realized we could fix their laminate problem, we took over printing the labels. The previous supplier used a different print process and when we tried to print their labels, the colours came out differently than required. Their labels had specific colour tones that had been printed using a different method, and when we used our process, the colours didn’t match as closely as they needed to.
They were looking for a solution that would solve both the laminate and colour problems, and they needed a reliable partner who could make it happen.
The Solution: Dropping Everything to Adjust Their Files and Set the Press for Perfect Colour Match
When this customer called us, we didn’t hesitate. We knew we had to go above and beyond to resolve their issues and restore their confidence in their labels. So, we immediately jumped into action to figure out what was wrong.
- Tackling the Laminate Issue: We investigated what had gone wrong with the original supplier’s laminate and explored alternative options that would offer durability and a sleek finish. We quickly recommended a high-quality laminate that would provide the longevity they needed without compromising the appearance of their labels.
- Fixing the Colour Discrepancy: Next, we turned our attention to the colour problem. Since their previous supplier used a different printing process than us, the colour profiles in their files didn’t match the desired shades when printed with our technique. Instead of printing the same colours as their existing labels, they ended up with a subtle—but noticeable—difference. We knew that their desired colour had to match exactly, so we took matters into our own hands.
Our design team and operators worked together to review the files, adjust the colours, and make real-time adjustments to the settings on the printing press itself to make sure that the final print job would match the colour intensity and hue they had used previously. We tested and found the perfect balance that allowed us to recreate their exact colour preferences.
Once we had both the laminate and colour issues sorted, we went ahead and printed the labels to their exact specifications, making sure everything looked perfect before we delivered the finished product.
The Result: Labels That Matched, Lasted, and Earned Their Trust
The results were immediate and incredibly positive. The customer was thrilled. The new labels not only matched their existing colours perfectly, but the laminate issue was resolved as well. The labels came out exactly as they had hoped—beautifully printed, durable, and they were even more impressed by the level of service we provided.
But the most rewarding result was the trust they placed in us. After resolving these issues, they decided to move their business over to us entirely. What started as a simple label issue turned into a full-scale partnership. They knew they could rely on us to solve problems quickly and professionally, and they appreciated the personal attention we gave to their unique challenges.
