In a move to expand further into the folding carton market, CCL Industries Inc. has installed the world’s first HP Indigo 35K Digital Press at its Label Healthcare facility in Montreal, Canada.
The new B2 sheetfed press for cartons and specialty boards offers high-definition printing, security inks, and variable data printing for track-and-trace solutions and security elements. As a result, the HP Indigo folding carton solution can deliver multi-layered brand protection applications on one press, in one pass to serve the health and personal care, plastic card and high-end folding carton markets.
“We have collaborated with HP for more than 15 years in the development of digital printing and workflows in the packaging industry and we are delighted to have reached such a significant milestone with HP Indigo. Their technology continues to be a vital component in our moves to connect digitally with our customers and consumers on a global basis,” said Geoffrey T. Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of CCL Industries Inc.
