Kartongbolaget breaks into short-run, personalised cartons with HP Indigo digital printing and TRESU iCoat coating line

Kartongbolaget AB, the Helsingborg, Sweden-based folding carton converter, is introducing a fast, short-run and personalised packaging service, with the installation of a seven-colour HP Indigo 30000 Digital Press with integrated TRESU iCoat 30000 coater.   
 

The digital line, the first of its type in Scandinavia, serves its customers in the industrial, food, confectionery and personal care sectors across northern Europe. It complements an existing offset workflow that includes a six-colour Heidelberg Speedmaster XL75, die-cutters and other finishing equipment.

The installation enables Kartongbolaget to introduce a new flexible digital folding carton service, “Fast Track”, offering short and personalised runs of up to 5000 sheets as well as sample production, delivered within five days. Its cost-effectiveness is enabling niche and luxury brands to achieve retail listings with added-value packaging presentation for the first time. Read more here.
