Over the past six decades, the company has undergone remarkable transformations, driven by growth, dedication to quality, and a commitment to providing reliable solutions. ALG has continues to set benchmarks for excellence in high-quality durable labels for complex performance situations. 

Milestones and Achievements 
One of ALG’s most significant accomplishments has been its leadership in the durable labeling field, particularly for fire extinguishing solutions, outdoor power equipment & trailers, OEMs, other complex performance durable markets. This commitment to durables led to achieving and maintaining ISO 9000 certification. Over the years, ALG has also played a key role in developing advanced offerings for these sectors, earning the trust of industry leaders and establishing itself as a go-to provider for market-leading solutions. 

In response to evolving technologies and customer demands, ALG expanded its capabilities by introducing a screen-printing department, complementing its existing digital and flexographic printing operations. This addition has enabled the company to serve its clients better with a broader set of solutions for over 50 years. 

Celebrating 60 Years with New Initiatives 
To commemorate this milestone, ALG is making significant investments in its people and infrastructure within the 2020s. The company is expanding its sales and customer support teams to deliver high-touch service and proactively address client needs. This enhanced approach ensures customers receive tailored, forward-thinking solutions to their challenges before they even arise. 

“At ALG Labels + Graphics, our core values — Pursue Excellence, Support Each Other and Own It! —are at the heart of everything we do,” said Steve Cramer, General Manager. “By embracing these core values, we work together to deliver exceptional service, take responsibility for our actions, and strive for continuous improvement in all areas.” 

Recently, ALG achieved Silver EcoVadis certification last year, underscoring its dedication to environmental and social responsibility. As a company, ALG continues to prioritize sustainability by implementing practices and processes that reduce environmental impact while delivering exceptional products to its clients. 

“This milestone is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team and the trust of our customers,” said John Ehrhardt, President of ALG Labels + Graphics and second-generation leader of the company. “We’ve come a long way over the last 60 years, and I’m incredibly proud of how we’ve grown and continue to evolve.”

ALG Labels & Graphics Acquires CEI IMAX14T ISR – Inspector Slitter Rewinder /news/alg-labels-graphics-acquires-cei-imax14t-isr-inspector-slitter-rewinder/ Wed, 25 Sep 2024 15:39:27 +0000 /?p=29506 Birmingham, Alabama – ALG Labels + Graphics is excited to announce the acquisition of the CEI IMAX14T ISR – Inspector Slitter Rewinder, a significant advancement in finishing technology that underscores the company’s commitment to innovation, efficiency, and exceptional customer service.

Steve Cramer, General Manager at ALG Labels + Graphics, praised the new equipment, saying, “We are thrilled with the capabilities of the CEI IMAX14T ISR. This advanced technology reflects our dedication to improving accuracy and efficiency. Not only does it enhance our production speed, but it also ensures superior quality for our products.”

The CEI IMAX14T ISR features a user-friendly touchscreen interface and intuitive controls, making it remarkably easy to operate. It includes an advanced inspection camera system that performs 100% validation of printed products. This system compares each label against a ‘golden master’ image, identifying even the smallest discrepancies, such as tiny, almost invisible ink dots. Remarkably, within just a week of installation, the system detected these nearly imperceptible defects before they could be spotted through manual inspection.

Cramer added, “The ease of use provided by the touchscreen interface and the quick training of our employees has been impressive. Our team members were able to get up to speed in no time. The system’s ability to catch fine details early is a game-changer for us.”

The automatic cameras not only help catch defects but also allow our employees to focus on other important tasks. While the cameras handle the detailed inspection, our staff can concentrate on additional responsibilities, improving overall efficiency. This enhancement supports our commitment to maintaining the high quality that our customers have come to expect from us.

The CEI IMAX14T ISR also features a streamlined blade resetting process facilitated by a removable cassette, reducing setup time and complexity. This design is ideal for handling frequent job changes and high turnover, further enhancing operational efficiency.

With its cutting-edge inspection capabilities, user-friendly design, and efficient performance, the CEI IMAX14T ISR is set to elevate ALG Labels + Graphics’ quality standards and support the company’s commitment to excellence and reliable service.
