TRESU Group announces the sale of a nine-color Flexo Innovator press to Aspen Products, Inc., based in Kansas City, Missouri, and one of the largest providers of table-top paper products in North America. The 44-inch (1100mm) press, which is scheduled for installation in May 2017, has a top speed of 2000fpm (600mpm) and will be equipped with a hot air drying system with central gas burner.
“This sale is especially significant for the company, not least because it is the first brand new press ever ordered in Aspen Products’ 40-year history,” said Scott Hibbs, CEO and President, TRESU Americas. “The company was impressed by the Flexo Innovator’s capability for fast job changeovers and print quality at top speeds. Its ergonomic features, in-line design and registration system that ensures minimal paper waste were other important factors in choosing TRESU.”
TRESU’s sales and engineering teams worked closely with Aspen Product’s management to configure the press with the components and features required to streamline production, deliver quality print, increased throughput and increased profitability.
Established in 1977, Aspen Products is a privately owned company that manufactures paper plates, trays and bowls that are distributed through grocery, discount, club, food service and institutional distributors.
