Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd has announced that Castell Howell Foods Ltd, a leading food wholesaler in South Wales, has significantly enhanced its in-house print capabilities with the installation of its AccurioPress C84hc. Supplied and supported by Solutions in Technology - Konica Minolta’s dedicated exclusive partner in South Wales - the high chroma production press is delivering vibrant, lifelike colour and exceptional reliability.



“In the food wholesale industry, people buy with their eyes, so image quality is everything,” said Shaun Pinney, Marketing Manager at Castell Howell Foods Ltd. “We chose the AccurioPress C84hc press because its vibrant, lifelike print results truly bring our products to life. The clarity and colour accuracy are a real game changer for us, helping us showcase food the way it’s meant to be seen.”

The AccurioPress C84hc features high chroma toner technology, impressive 3,600 x 2,400 dpi resolution, and Konica Minolta’s IQ-501 intelligent automation system, ensuring consistent colour reproduction and precise registration. Its ability to handle greaseproof and specialty media has enabled Castell Howell Foods to expand its print offerings, including full bleed menus and marketing collateral.

Solutions in Technology has been a Konica Minolta partner for 23 years and is its largest independent partner in Wales. Jason Bale, Sales Manager at Solutions in Technology, commented, “Castell Howell Foods is a new customer, and we’re delighted to have helped them select the ideal replacement for their old press. The Konica Minolta AccurioPress C84hc delivers the vibrant, high quality and eye catching print results needed to showcase its products.”

Jason added, “Our locations in Cwmbran, Swansea, and Bristol mean our professional Konica Minolta trained and accredited team are close by and ready to provide support for their print needs quickly and efficiently.”

The installation has already delivered measurable business benefits, including reduced operating costs, improved productivity, and new revenue opportunities by enabling customers to print their own menus, further expanding the company’s reach.

Established in 1988, Castell Howell Foods serves over 8,000 venues across Wales and the Southwest of England, including restaurants, cafés, and schools. Known for its commitment to quality and regional sourcing, the company relies heavily on printed menus and monthly A5 booklets to communicate with customers and promote its offerings.

“The AccurioPress C84hc is built for businesses where vibrant visuals drive customer engagement,” said Cameron Mitchell, Head of Indirect Sales at Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd. “It’s ideal for food and hospitality sectors, where print quality really matters. We’re proud to support Jason and the expert team at Solutions in Technology in delivering this powerful press to Castell Howell Foods Ltd.”
