Danish Packaging Firm Primoreels Invests in Nilpeter All-New FA Press

Danish packaging company Primoreels has invested in a new Nilpeter all-new FA press to increase printing quality and capacity.

Primoreels is engaged in providing lidding solutions for the dairy sector and water/juice industries. The firm is a partner and supplier to companies such as Arla Foods, Danone, Lactalis, among others.

The FA 9-colour, 17’’ flexo press with a double die-cutting unit has been purchased by Primoreels to increase quality and capacity for dairy, water, and juice lids among others, and to meet growing demands from customers.

Primoreels managing director Henrik Sahlberg said: “It was natural for us to go to Nilpeter. With their facilities just 45 minutes away, we can count on quick reliable service if need be, and more importantly, we were blown away by the capabilities of the new FA.

“With the new press we are future-proof in terms of capacity and technology – job change time is cut from 90 minutes to less than 10, we can insource previously outsourced jobs, enhance quality for our existing customer database, and approach exciting new markets and industry leaders.”

For Primoreels, the press has been configured with three Nilpeter Automation and Application Packages including the Film Package, the Progressive Print Package, and the Automatic Register Package.

The press’ three of the printing units are fitted with color pumps to speed-up the flow and output on the more frequently used colors.

Upon installation at an undisclosed facility in July 2018, the press will be used by Primoreels to produce sealable lids on a range of flexible substrates mainly PP and PET plastic with integrated barriers and pure thin foils (23-36 my).

Nilpeter area sales manager Mads Aakjær said: “Primoreels visited our Technology Center in Slagelse in the beginning of the year, and with successful test runs of two jobs on metalized PET (23/36 my), Henrik Sahlberg and two of his printers got to experience firsthand the speed, user-friendliness, and print quality of the new FA.”
