UK carton printer the Benson Group has ordered two Bobst Masterfold high speed folder-gluer lines to replace four existing machines at its plant in Gateshead.
The new lines are Masterfold 75 A1 versions of the folder-gluer, each complete with a Bobst Easyfeeder GT automatic feeder and a Cartonpack GT automatic carton packer for high speed, reduced labour operation. The A1 variant of the Masterfold is a straightline carton version and Benson Group has ordered the machines with a speed upgrade to 700m/min.
Benson MD Mark Kerridge says: “Our core market for Gateshead is high volume sleeves and straightline boxes for food packaging and these machines will be ideal for producing these. We will use the productivity of the new Masterfold lines to help drive organic growth at Gateshead.”
