Posted in Latest News on January 18, 2010

Plastilene, a South American flexible packaging converter, has installed three BST Premius inspection systems at its Bogotá, Colombia, production facility following successful trials of the print defect detection technology.  

The systems were trialed for two months on W&H flexo presses. Alejandro Defrancisco, plant manager, said: ‘The trial showed that BST Premius with automatic print defect detection is an extremely effective tool for managing print quality on press. It contributes significantly to better print quality, reduced waste and improved production efficiencies, while allowing us to deliver the very best possible quality product to our customers on a daily basis.’  

Plastilene produces flexible packaging for solid and liquid food and agricultural products on a wide range of films at high speeds. Founded 52 years ago, the company serves customers throughout Latin America from production facilities in Colombia and Guatemala.
