Macfarlane Labels invests in 10-color Nilpeter FA-17

Macfarlane Labels provides self-adhesive and resealable labels to a wide range of sectors including food, health and beauty, household products, beverages and pharmaceuticals.

Following the Covid-19 outbreak, the company has seen a growth in demand for labelling and packaging products, creating both challenges and opportunities that have led to the acquisition of the new 10-color Nilpeter FA-17. The new press joins a fleet of five other Nilpeter presses at Macfarlane.

‘This significant investment for our label business in Kilmarnock, Scotland is in response to increasing and changing demands from our customers and their consumers,’ commented Angela Campbell, resealable labels director at Macfarlane Labels. ‘This latest technology in printing, produces the highest label quality to ensure that our customers’ brands are perfectly presented. The press allows us to meet our customers’ ever changing needs and demands, led by innovative marketing trends.’

‘It is great to see Macfarlane pushing forward with new technology in the midst of a pandemic. Macfarlane has a fleet of Nilpeter presses, and the FA-17 brings the latest technology to allow greater production and less waste,’ added Nick Hughes, managing director of Nilpeter.
