Ultra-thin paper printing achieved through proprietary machinery and technology

Printing on ultra-thin paper, renowned for its high manufacturing difficulty due to issues like fragility and static electricity generation, is the field where DAIKYO PRINTING demonstrates its technical prowess most effectively. The company introduced rotary presses featuring uniquely modified folding machine claws and conveyor belt positions. To prevent wrinkles and paper breaks caused by the paper's thinness, it developed a system that quantifies tensile strength and trains AI to learn from this data. Furthermore, the company has established stable printing and processing techniques for ultra-thin paper through rigorous measures including visual inspection by operators for defects and malfunctions, regular inspection training, and meticulous control of external environmental factors such as temperature and humidity. While standard copy paper weighs approximately 4g per sheet, the ultra-thin paper handled by the company weighs around 1.6g, achieving a weight reduction of approximately 40%. This delivers diverse benefits, including reduced shipping costs and lower environmental impact through decreased CO2 emissions during transport. Furthermore, its proprietary rotary press enables simultaneous printing and processing, contributing to shorter lead times and reduced manufacturing costs. The company meets customer demands for high-precision, high-quality printing on ultra-thin paper with its proven technology and equipment.

Strengths

DAIKYO PRINTING speciality in ultra-thin paper printing is a printing technique that combines environmental consideration with cost-effectiveness. It significantly reduces the weight and volume of printed materials, leading to lower pulp consumption and reduced environmental impact during transport. Customers value not only the improved storage and portability, but also the reduction in postage costs achieved through lower weight and thickness. Keeping shipments under 50g (down from 100g) enables savings of ¥40 per item, proving highly effective for bulk mailings such as lengthy terms and conditions or direct mail.

DAIKYO PRINTING focuses on the manufacture and development of environmentally conscious printed materials, with its printing plants holding both FSC certification and the GP Mark. Alongside developing its own recyclable paper files, the company is promoting eco-binding methods that eliminate folding and stapling through inline processing. Furthermore, it prints on stone paper, which uses no wood pulp; its high water repellency is expanding its use in applications such as disaster prevention maps. Moving forward, the company will continue its commitment to the SDGs, persistently providing printed materials with environmental value.
