Located in Dae Gu, Hansung P&I is one of the largest printers in South Korea, with more than five decades of experience in gravure, offset, letterpress, and flexo across multiple industries. The group currently operates more than 50 printing presses and is on route to further expansions into new territories over the next few years. Nilpeter, as one of its new partners, will play a significant role within the expansion plans.

During the Covid-19 pandemic and faced with new Korean labor laws limiting weekly working hours, Hansung faced a challenge to expand its production capacity in flexo to continue serving some of the world's leading logistics companies. 

‘These specific jobs require a complicated system integration and are unique. Nilpeter was able to meet these requirements, and for that reason, the Nilpeter FB-Line was a perfect choice for us,’ commented Choi Youngchul, CEO of Hansung Group.

‘In addition, Nilpeter’s application team really came through,’ added Jung Won Joong, managing director of Hansung and its subsidiary company Dong Yang. ‘We are looking forward to expanding with similar Nilpeter presses in the near future, and we are excited as well about possibly adding a Nilpeter FA-Line in our FMCG division.’

The Nilpeter FB-Line has been developed to offer high ease of operation and superior printing quality. Designed to deliver maximum flexibility at an affordable price, it can be customized with automation features and combined with value-added features such as lamination, cold foil, hot foil, gravure, and screen printing.
