AllenPack installs Omet press

Taiwanese packaging specialist strengthens shrink-sleeve production capabilities with KFlex K4 530.

AllenPack has strengthened its production capabilities with the installation of a new Omet KFlex K4 530 press, delivered and commissioned in January, to support growing demand for high-definition, fast-turnaround shrink-sleeve applications.

Founded in 1980, AllenPack has built its reputation as a provider of shrink-packaging products, offering PVC, PET, POF and PE shrink film, shrink tubing and sleeves, as well as its own sleeving machinery. This ability to control the full process, from film production to labeling equipment, has made AllenPack a trusted partner for beverage, household and personal-care brands.

The new Omet press was selected to help increase efficiency and competitiveness in established markets while opening opportunities for new segments where flexibility and waste reduction are critical. The machine's configuration enables faster changeovers and fine-tuned quality control, key factors for a company managing diverse product SKUs and short-run requirements typical of today's consumer-goods landscape.

A key contributor to this project has been Ben Liu of Yah Sheng Chong Yung Kee Co., Ltd, Omet's representative in Taiwan. His technical expertise and close support to local converters have proven essential in creating a channel between market needs and OMET's technology.

The collaboration between AllenPack, Omet and its local representative represents an example of how tailored machinery, efficient communication and on-site expertise converge to create improvements in productivity and competitiveness.
