In operation for over 50 years, Grupo Lappi is a manufacturer and exporter of labels, stickers and prints with three production sites in Seville, Abrera and Sant Sadurní d'Anoia in Spain. It also operates a subsidiary in the UK leading its export division, with sales offices in France, Morocco and the Caribbean.

The MPS EF flexo press on order will be used primarily for printing shrink sleeves and wraparound labels for the food and beverage markets. As the press will be equipped with various converting units, Grupo Lappi can offer its customers a range of finishing and converting options.

The press ordered also includes an APC advanced automation package.

Félix Prieto of Grupo Impryma, the local MPS Spanish agent, assisted throughout the purchasing decision to help configure the optimum press and options for Grupo Lappi’s planned expansion.

Eric Hoendervangers, MPS director of key accounts, said: ‘We are very pleased that Grupo Lappi, one of the largest label manufacturers in Spain, has opted again for the reliable quality and productivity of an MPS press.

‘It has purchased our premium flexo press, with the APC advanced automation package for ultimate print control, including the print gap. This new press will complement Grupo Lappi’s existing range of highly efficient and automated production processes, and their plans to further expand and enter new markets.’
