Corrugated packaging manufacturer Boxes and Packaging (Doncaster, UK) is to install an additional folder gluer in April 2017, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.
The folder gluer is suitable for a range of board grades and capable of gluing a maximum sheet size of 2800 wide x 1400 deep. A running speed of 4,000 sheets per hour clearly highlights its performance capabilities.
The gluing of boxes is commonplace in the corrugated industry and is suitable for use on products made from both single and double wall material. The procedure delivers incredible strength and durability to the packaging solution and sees glued boxes utilised for transporting a myriad of products. It is particularly useful in industries where products need to be protected such as retail, furniture and bathroom sanitary ware.
Doncaster Managing Director Stacey Austin commented; “This additional production capacity for this procedure will allow us to maintain our short lead times which we offer our customers whilst also increasing our work in this specific area. It is the first in a series of exciting developments planned for the Doncaster site in 2017 and this folder gluer is pivotal in installing solid foundations for our future growth.”
The Doncaster site offers a range of corrugated packaging solutions ranging from bespoke high quality packaging to large volume transit packaging.
