What you can expect from Dura-ID Solutions

We will be showcasing a range of our print solutions, highlighting thermal transfer printer  with the Toshiba BA420, and full colour printer options with the OKI C650 and Epson CW4000 AE. An industry favourite in the horticulture sector, the Toshiba BA420 thermal transfer printer was introduced to handle the wide range of self-adhesive and tag varieties used by garden centres, growers, and nurseries. The OKI C650 is perfect for sheet-fed operations, producing extremely durable full-colour labels, making it a great option for starting in-house printing. The Epson CW4000 AE is the ideal print solution offering high gloss full-colour high-quality labels for small to mid-size runs. We stock an extensive range of horticulture labels, compatible with all these printers, available to dispatch within two working days.

Dura-ID Solutions manufactures a variety of horticulture labels and tags. We produce a wide range of popular options within the industry, including stick-in labels (also known as pot pointers), UV-resistant bed cards, and weatherproof self-adhesive labels. Loop-lock labels are one of the favourites throughout the horticulture sector due to their versatility, helping identify plants, shrubs and trees.

HLS Pro X

We recently launched the long-awaited HLS Pro X software, an innovation on the previous HLS Pro software. After a successful launch, we have installed a whole host of new HLS Pro X software, both to brand new customers and upgrading existing users. The latest release includes:

  • A refined user interface that simplifies navigation and allows for full label customization.
  • Integrated label formats that match product codes displayed on packaging.
  • The intelligent search function, facilitating easy searching across all fields.
  • Print labels in monochrome or vibrant colour depending what printer you opt for.
  • Supports QR codes and extended barcodes, enabling access to additional information stored within the code for your customers’ benefit.

We offer enhanced upgrade paths for customers that already own a HLS license. Our in-house technical team can ensure your data is moved safely to the new software.

Come and see us on stand D70/D103 to discuss all things plant, shrub and tree labelling. Whether you’re looking to improve plant passporting, enhance your branding, or introduce automation, find out what we can do for your nursery or garden centre.
