Karl Jackson, production director of Kingfisher Labels, commented: ‘Due to increasing sales it was imperative that we purchased additional finishing equipment. This decision was made very easily, as since our very first Bar Graphic’s purchase the machines have been absolutely faultless. Reliability has been impeccable and this in itself assured us of the quality and high standards BGM is able to offer.’

Daniel Carr, sales manager of Bar Graphic Machinery, said: ‘We are delighted that Kingfisher Labels’ future growth and expansion plans involve buying additional equipment from BGM. 

‘They have purchased our latest 410mm wide label inspection slitter rewinder. By keying in the rewind shaft size the machine will automatically adjust the acceleration/deceleration times optimizing productivity outputat speeds of up to 300m/min. In addition, the machine’s electrical requirement is single phase 13 amp enabling relocation to be very simple, as no hard wiring or electrician is required.’
