Bobst and Olegário Fernandes close deal for two presses

Established in 1922, Olegário Fernandes specializes in the production of cardboard packaging and labels for a variety of industries, including pharmaceutical, food and beverage, personal and household care and cosmetics.

‘We look ahead to the considerable benefits that the advanced features of the M5 - which we have seen demonstrated a number of times in Bobst Firenze’s Competence Center - can bring in terms of operational efficiency with pre-register setting and very fast job changes,’ said Duarte Rebelo de Sousa, director, Olegário Fernandes ‘The presses also provide the perfect product fit for the requirements of our clients that operate in the high-end segment of the self-adhesive label market and increasingly require products with added value finishing and complex shapes.’

Added Maurizio Trecate, sales director, narrow and mid-web multi-process printing and converting product line, Bobst Firenze, ‘The M5 with its multiple configuration possibilities is just ideal for broadening the diversification opportunities of Olegário Fernandes, for instance with the production of up to 3-layer coupons. Their M5 presses are equipped with multi-process units for cold foil and screen printing, as well as die-cutting - all in one pass.’

The deal was sealed on the Bobst stand A59 in Hall 3 of Labelexpo Europe 2017.
