The company was in need of a new system after experiencing steadily rising demand in multiple segments with a very specific, customer requirements, calling for consistent quality and quick turnarounds. 

‘To continue to meet these demands in a cost-efficient way, we decided once more to go with Nilpeter from Denmark, our long-standing technology partner’, said Henning Schwenke, general Manager at Märkische Etiketten. 

‘Our decision was based mainly on two factors: our need to significantly expand capacities and our mission to select only the most innovative technologies around in order to further strengthen our market position’, explained Ivo Lambrecht, head of marketing and sales at Märkische Etiketten. ‘The Nilpeter FA is a versatile and highly cost-efficient flexo press that fits in perfectly with our existing fleet. Operators can run the system with ease thanks to its leading-edge user interface and mobile print controls. And the FA is highly scalable: Upgrades can be implemented at any time without much cost or effort. Now we can meet the demands of the market and our customers are faster and better than ever before.’ 

The FA flexo press installed at Märkische Etiketten represents an entirely new machine generation launched in 2017. In designing the new model, Nilpeter kept its focus on streamlining machine operation resulting in what the company calls its ‘Clean Hand’ technology. By minimizing hands-on machine interaction, the operator’s hands are literally kept ‘clean’, ensuring safe work practices and enabling intuitive production control.
