HP Indigo 20000
Amcor has installed an HP Indigo 20000 digital press at its Ghent, Belgium facility to provide digitally printed packaging on a wide range of flexible materials.
Headquartered in Switzerland, Amcor supplies rigid and flexible packaging products into the food, beverage, healthcare, home and personal care and tobacco packaging industries, and was one of the first flexible packaging suppliers to install an HP Indigo 20000 Digital Press in 2015. Before accepting commercial orders, Amcor tested the press for a large range of packaging materials, conducting lab analysis for ink migration, compatibility, and strength.
‘We are pleased with the performance of the press,’ said Thierry De Schryver, manager of the Amcor Ghent manufacturing site. ‘Our customers have chosen digital printing for a variety of packaging applications. They also like the option of using digital print for promotional packs and prototyping.’
‘We are proud and honoured that Amcor, one of the leading names in flexible packaging, has adopted the solution and is bringing to market digitally printed packaging,’ commented Alon Bar-Shany, HP Indigo general manager. ‘We look forward to working together with Amcor to lead the next phase of the digital packaging revolution.’
