Arden Dies has become the first UK die-maker to achieve a double accreditation from BOBST for both flatbed corrugated and folding carton.
Arden Dies has recently passed the certification process for flatbed corrugated (SPO). This comes after Arden was awarded the certification for flatbed folding carton (SP) back in 2020, making them the first UK die-maker to hold accreditations for both areas of die-making.
Sarah Poynter, Operations Manager, Arden, said, “Arden Dies has been a leader in the die-making and packaging industry in the UK for almost 60 years, and we pride ourselves on our high-quality tooling, innovation and die-making expertise, so we are delighted to be a Bobst certified die-maker for both folding carton and flatbed corrugated.”
