GURNEE, IL – April 4, 2017 – Nosco is proud to announce that it is now the first fully-certified GMI (Graphic Measures International) print facility in the United States for conventional offset litho and digital carton printing. This announcement comes after Nosco’s digital carton press earned a full certification from GMI in March of 2017, which adds to Nosco’s current full conventional certification from July of 2016.
Both certifications serve as formal recognition that the full-service printed packaging provider complies with GMI’s international standards for process control and documentation, equipment maintenance, equipment performance, operator capability and training procedures. As a global leader in packaging quality services, GMI certifies, monitors and measures the performance of designated packaging suppliers — a process that holds them accountable to established brand owner standards. GMI helps control the variables and ensure brand integrity through printer certification, production run sample measurement and in-store packaging assessments.
“Nosco is now recognized for meeting GMI’s high standards for conventional offset and digitally printed cartons,” said Nosco Packaging Advisor Bill Nimmer. “This certification allows Nosco to print across multiple print platforms, providing consistent, repeatable color that meets the requirements of some of the largest brands in the industry.”
Nosco will work to maintain both of its current certifications in the future, as well as explore other GMI opportunities, to comply with various packaging quality assurance (PQA) programs.
