Edale sells another Alpha into Germany

Frank-Etikettendruck, based in Solingen, Germany, has installed a 5-color UV Alpha flexo press from Edale.

Adam Frank, owner of Frank-Etikettendruck, explained: ‘Our turnover has increased, on average, by 30 percent annually since I started the company back in 2004. An increased workforce meant we required a bigger space. We are due to move into our new factory in early January 2013 and a new machine investment was the next step’.

Although Frank-Etikettendruck is a new customer, its relationship with Edale goes back a number of years. Adam Frank ran Edale presses in his previous job at a label print company in Solingen. When the time came for him to set up on his own, he said he immediately thought of Edale.

The company decided on the Alpha because of ‘its small footprint, high quality print and ability to produce short to medium run labels and ticketing substrates from 50 – 250 microns, with minimum waste’.

Bernhard Grob, Edale’s export sales director, concluded: ‘We are really pleased to have completed the sale and installation into such a reputable company as Frank-Etikettendruck. The fact that we can also use their new factory as a reference site to showcase the Edale Alpha press is great news’.

The company serves the automotive, food medical and pharma industries locally and internationally.
