ARC Adds Seal Pro Laminators

The Calgary, Alberta, location of ARC Document Solutions has added a Seal 62 Pro D laminator, largely based on an earlier successful installation of a Seal 65 Pro MD laminator at the company’s Burnaby, BC, facility.

The installation of both systems were overseen by GBC Canada, one of the country’s leading providers of print finishing technologies for digital production, as well as hybrid digital-offset environments, focusing on Seal and GBC finishing, laminating and media products.

The Seal 62 Pro Series offers industrial performance, explains GBC, based on its capabilities for running a range of media at high speeds. It features fully adjustable temperature, speed and pressure settings and, according to GBC, it is ideally suited for experienced finishing departments requiring a versatile laminator.

“The dual heated rollers make most applications, including encapsulation, really easy to use. It maximizes versatility, minimizes waste and is a real value add for us,” said Joyce Wong, ARC’s Production Supervisor in Calgary.

ARC (formerly American Reprographics Company) is a global company, with approximately 170 service centres throughout North America, in addition to European centres, specializing in the distribution of information through printing and IT services. Founded in 1988 in southern California, ARC’s fiscal 2017 revenue was more than US$400 million generated by more than 2,600 employees around the world.

The company has nine service centres in Canada (BC, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec) focusing on providing document solutions to businesses of all types, with an emphasis on the commercial segments of the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry. The company is also investing more into providing more health care document services.
