IWCO Direct Integrates Finishing System into Digital Platform
IWCO Direct has installed an Inveloper wrap-based
finishing system at its Chanhassen facility. By integrating
with IWCO Direct's digital print technology, the Inveloper
provides direct marketers the ability to increase direct
mail open and response rates through more creative and
personalized outer envelopes and selective inserting.
Enhancing direct mail campaign performance with
increased personalization capabilities was an important
criteria when IWCO Direct made strategic investments
in digital printing technology. This included adding
multiple Océ ColorStream 3900 digital inkjet printers
across its platform.
"Bringing the Inveloper into our production platform
is another tool to help our customers produce direct
mail packages that are more relevant to recipients and
standout in the mailbox," explained Jim Andersen, IWCO
Direct chief executive officer. "At the same time, we'll
see increased production efficiencies and improved
quality. We're excited about the unique benefits the In-
veloper brings to our customers."
The Inveloper improves production quality by
combining envelope production and inserting into
a single, more efficient process. By wrapping the
contents instead of inserting,
the potential for paper jams,
work stoppage and production
delays is eliminated. In addition,
less paper is used and postage
costs are reduced by decreasing
the weight of the mailpiece.
