The city of Xiamen, formerly known as Amoy, located on the southeast coast of China and known for its scenic beauty, faces Taiwan across the Taiwan Strait. It is the hometown of China's famous Overseas Chinese and the first area to be designated a special economic zone in China.

Known as the "International Flower Garden City," the city of 4 million people is blessed with clean air and warm sunshine. Xiamen Caiyilong Printing Co., Ltd., an industry-leading package printing company, is located in this beautiful and historic beachside metropolis.
A provider of first-rank package printing services in Fujian Province, Caiyilong was founded in 2005 with investments of roughly 40 million RMB (USD 5.8 million). It is a private package printing company with a site of 3,000 square meters.

Package printing: a promising future

Since its foundation, the company has followed a philosophy of respect for people, high quality at low cost, customer satisfaction and continuous improvement. By constantly improving the technical side of its products and enhancing its print technology, Caiyilong has gained an innovative competitive edge. Hiring highly qualified managers and engineers and using the world's most advanced package printing equipment are key to this achievement. Its current equipment fleet consists of a state-of-the-art CTP system, a five-color Lithrone G40 H-UV with coater (the first in Fujian Province) that allows the use of gold and silver cardboard and eco-friendly ink and provides instant drying of special substrates, three half-size four-color presses, three folding machines, a gluing system, a saddle stitching system and a punching machine. Services offered include design, platemaking, printing, die cutting, embossing, box gluing and binding.
Package printing has long been a hot topic throughout the printing industry, and the Chinese package printing industry has grown quickly as consumption has risen in the country. Supported by enormous market needs, this industry is constantly changing.
Caiyilong's core printing business is package printing, including catalogs for corporate advertising, product packages, advertising fliers, POP posters, stickers, carrier bags, desk and wall calendars, envelopes, greeting cards, notepads, magazines, booklets, tags and gift boxes.
Caiyilong's CEO, Lin Renhui, says: "While the whole printing industry is in recession, Caiyilong is aiming for differentiation by going our own way. We officially installed the five-color Lithrone G40 H-UV with coater in late October 2016. We're taking part in the growth of Xiamen's real estate market by producing real estate catalogs. We also design and produce packages for high-end electronic products as well as cosmetics and food products for a range of companies. We've now entered a new stage of growth and are contributing to the economic growth of Xiamen."

Tie-up with Komori for solid base

Mr. Lin explains: "The beginning of our relationship with Komori was at an open house event. An H-UV-equipped press was shown, and its high productivity, environmental friendliness, and energy- and space-saving features impressed us." He also adds, "After talking with our engineers, we understood that the H-UV system perfectly matched the needs of our target customers. The high-sensitivity H-UV inks and wide range of coating techniques match our requirements for printing art books, fashion magazines, luxury goods catalogs and high-end packaged products. The decision to go with Komori was a success. Now, just three months after installation, many customers acknowledge this machine and we've received a huge amount of orders. Komori has significantly raised our market share and our position in the Xiamen printing market. We've expanded into new fields and at new levels."
"High speed, high productivity and low failure rate" was Lin's first impression of Komori as he sought perfection and high standards at Caiyilong. Later on, he says, "My initial perception deepened as our partnership with Komori matured. I was impressed with Komori's technical capabilities and services, especially on the H-UV drying system. It is the optimal tool for package printing."
Instantly drying the sheets, passing the work to postpress and then immediately binding not only saves space but also greatly shortens turnaround time. This performance brought Caiyilong many new customers.
Ou Honglin, the first operator of the Lithrone, says: "To be honest, I was surprised when I operated the Lithrone G40 H-UV for the first time, especially by its operability. Plate changing, sheet transport and drying are far easier than I'd imagined. The machine does not use powder, so there are no powder troubles. H-UV guarantees high print quality and does not discharge ozone when drying. This agrees with the clean and green printing concepts advocated by the government. H-UV will definitely be adopted by more package printing companies in the future."
Continuous progress, quick adaptation to change, scientific management and aiming for customer satisfaction are the means by which Caiyilong plans to attain future growth. Incorporating new technology will be the foundation of Caiyilong's future achievements. As CEO Lin says, "By taking advantage of Komori printing machinery and technology, Caiyilong can build win-win relationships with our partners. Our group is sure to accomplish great things."
