Two UK packaging manufacturers have signed deals for the purchase of Bobst Expertfold multi-purpose folder-gluer lines. Bobst says it believes that these and recent similar sales indicate returning confidence within the packaging industry.
The two latest orders follow recent deals for further folder-gluers, flat-bed diecutters and corrugated print and conversion lines.
Craig Moran, Sales Manager for Bobst Group’s Sheet-fed business in the UK, Ireland and Scandinavia, comments: “With all the doom and gloom around over the past couple of years it’s heartening to see that the industry is beginning to show signs of recovery. These two machines reflect the message that we are getting across our product ranges – that UK industry is ready to invest again.”
Both new lines are Expertfold 110 CS models featuring computer setting of carriers and drives. One customer has configured its line to give as much flexibility in the styles it can process as possible. The other features both cold and hot gluing systems, giving the plant the ability to handle a variety of substrates.
