Starting With a Solution That Fits the Operation
When The Turmeric Co launched in 2017, the priority was clear: install a coding and marking system that would work reliably from day one and support a fast growing production environment.
As David Robson-Kanu explains, “We have been using Cyklop Needham printers since launching our business in 2017.”
The initial setup included a cartridge printer integrated with a small conveyor section, creating a straightforward and effective solution that delivered clear, consistent codes while fitting smoothly into the existing production line. Rather than overcomplicating the process, the focus was on installing equipment that met immediate needs while leaving room for future expansion.
Creating a Strong Foundation for Compliance and Efficiency
In the food and beverage sector, coding accuracy is directly linked to compliance, traceability and brand protection. Batch and date codes must remain clear and consistent across every unit, and production lines must keep moving without unnecessary stoppages.
The early investment in the right printing system gave The Turmeric Co a dependable foundation for growth.
“We started with a cartridge printer and a small conveyor section…” says David, highlighting the practical approach taken at the beginning.
By selecting equipment that integrated properly with their line and delivered reliable performance, the business avoided common issues such as misprints, excessive maintenance or repeated downtime.
Scaling the System as the Business Expanded
As demand for The Turmeric Co products increased, production volumes rose and operational complexity grew. A printing solution that works at launch must also perform under higher throughput and tighter schedules.
That continuity has been a key factor in the long term partnership.
“As we have grown and continue to expand, we’ve received ongoing, reliable support from the wider team.”
Rather than replacing systems unnecessarily, the focus remained on adapting and supporting the existing setup so it continued to meet changing requirements. This approach protected investment while ensuring that coding and marking processes remained stable during periods of rapid growth.
Reliable Support That Keeps Production Moving
Even the best equipment requires dependable service and responsive communication. In a production environment, delays cost time and money, so access to quick assistance makes a measurable difference.
The Turmeric Co has valued the responsiveness that supports the technical solution.
“…always quick to respond and happy to help whenever needed.”
This level of support helps maintain output, reduce disruption and keep packaging lines operating as planned.
Why the Right Printing Partner Matters
Choosing the right coding and marking solution is not only about the printer itself. It is about integration with conveyors and packaging equipment, consistent print quality, long term reliability and support that aligns with operational demands.
For The Turmeric Co, the decision made in 2017 has continued to deliver value through steady performance and dependable service.
In David’s words, the experience has been defined by “ongoing, reliable support… over the years and consistently goes above and beyond.”
The result is a printing solution that fits the business, supports compliance and grows alongside production demands.
