Arpeco back in business at Labelexpo

Arpeco Engineering is back in business following an investment by a group of private investors.

The company entered into voluntary receivership in mid-June - largely due to very heavy engineering research and development activities on new Trackers, new Impressionist label presses and on its new Cartonmaster folding carton machines. The strengthening Dollar and SARS out-break were also factors. ‘Arpeco has now emerged stronger, financially stable and with all its previous technologies,’ says the company in a statement. President Alan Prittie says he intends to direct the company ‘along a new road into the future - one that will provide sharp focus to the design and manufacture of application specific options/modules for its already established products.’

At Labelexpo Arpeco Engineering will feature the latest version of its Tracker Premier, Slitter Inspection Rewinder on the IMER stand number 7K120. Imer is Arpeco’s Spanish agent.
