Comexi Inaugurates new technology center

Comexi, a global flexible packaging printing and converting specialist, has inaugurated its Technology Center in Girona, Spain (CTec Girona). The latest EUR 11 million center joins a similar facility in Montenegro, and a new CTec in Miami, the USA, which will open in 2022.

Comexi has inaugurated its Technology Center in Girona, Spain (CTec Girona).

With a presence in more than 100 countries, the company has its production plants in Girona and Brazil and commercial offices in the United States and Russia. 

Comexi has inaugurated the new CTec Girona within the parameters of sustainability and energy consumption. The new technology center, CTec Girona, is integrated into the company's production with its multipurpose space of 2,500 square meters for innovation and development of R&D projects, but also for training, consulting, demonstrations, and an industrial laboratory. 

CTec Girona will have nine state-of-the-art machines for the flexible packaging sector. The facility will have a pioneering pre-press area in collaboration with leading sector companies, such as ESKO, DuPont, and Asahi, for offset plate engraving. Globally, the new center will be a benchmark due to its vastness and versatility and as a result of reflecting corporate sustainability and the industry 4.0 project, which is a primary objective of Comexi.

The new center features advanced tools for the digitization of processes and job workflows for printing and converting. One of these tools is Comexi Cloud, a digital service platform that assists customers with improving their factory performance through the analysis of real-time production data. Consequently, this allows them to build and develop smarter factories. 

‘Our CTec in Girona is the natural response to longtime latent needs of the market, as well as an example of the importance of innovation in our sector. As a result of the renovated technology centers, we offer our clients the best-customized solutions for their businesses, thus responding to the trust they have in us,’ said Manel Xifra, president of Comexi.
