Overnight Labels Inc. (Deer Park, NY) has achieved Platinum Level status in its certification from Graphic Measures International (GMI). The firm previously held Gold Level status. The certification from GMI holds packaging suppliers accountable to established brand owner standards, ensuring integrity, ongoing production run sample measurement, and in-store packaging assessments.

Only 72 printers nationwide have achieved Platinum status, the highest available in the GMI rating system. Certification with GMI allows Overnight Labels’ inclusion on a network of printers approved for product packaging for many retailer/CPG companies that utilize GMI services, such as CVS and Walgreens.

Overnight Labels’ original Gold certification awarded in 2016 followed an intensive on-site audit involving independent testing and inspections of company-wide processes and capabilities. This included an in-depth focus on graphics and color management, ensuring that the firm utilized the latest technology, and other areas such as press quality (registration, trapping, die-line accuracy, finishing), and quality assurance (process implementation, audits, traceability, barcode readability, non-compliance protocol).

“Overnight Labels is proud of our new GMI Platinum level status because it recognizes the quality we strive to achieve every day,” said Don Earl, president of Overnight Labels, in a press release. “Whether a company requires a GMI printer or not, color consistency has always been an area of expertise for us.  All of our customers are extra secure in knowing that we print to specific numbers and standards, not a subjective set of rules,” he added.
