Taking digital printing in corrugated and folding carton markets to new levels

By Robert Stabler, Managing Director, Koenig & Bauer Durst

The?CCE International - Corrugated & Carton Exhibition?this week (14-16 March) provides another important platform for us as we scale up our business for corrugated and folding carton markets.

With the current boom in digital printing for the markets expected to accelerate further, we look forward to welcoming you to our stand?2710. Feel free to sit down with us – all our furniture on our stand has been created from corrugated board and packaging!

In?partnership with?Durst Group?and?Koenig & Bauer Celmacch, we will be explaining in detail our technology, as well as providing insights into our business models and the opportunities that are available in the corrugated and folding carton markets.

I am delighted to be presenting at one of the?Open Seminars in Hall B6 on 16 March at 10.00. The theme will be the critical success factors for folding carton and corrugated companies considering digital printing.

Converters entering the space need to be assured that the backbone technologies they are adopting have the highest levels of automation and are able to convert high volumes meeting quality standards with the fewest touch points. They also need to ensure that their investment is future proof to ever increasing regulatory standards for food safety and recyclability.

Our Senior Product Manager, Matthias Krautgasser, will also be presenting at another Open Seminar in Hall B6 at 13.25 on the same day. With a theme of?Four Way Strategy for Digital Priming,?Matthias will explain how the?Delta SPC 130 single pass corrugated printing solution is offering a digital priming station.

The 4-way-strategy of the digital priming allows wider colour gamut, a huge range of topliners coated and uncoated, reduces ink consumption and opens the doors for new very cool applications. With its additional quality enhancement, it is a great tool and brings the digital printing in corrugated to the next level.

We look forward to seeing you at the show!
