Xeikon has confirmed that TriState Container Corp is the first corrugated company to order IDERA, its new digital printing solution for corrugated packaging converters.
TriState Container is an independently owned, third generation manufacturer located in Bensalem, Pennsylvania. TriState provides a wide variety of corrugated solutions from shipping containers to custom high graphic corrugated requirements through two divisions, TriState Container, and ProCorr Display and Packaging.
Allen Friedman, President, TriState Container, said, “As an independent, we are always looking for how we can create greater value for our customer, while building competitive advantage for ourselves. We believe the Idera digital press positions TriState to achieve both. We envision internal and external benefits. Internally, we can move jobs to the digital press that are better suited to digital technology. Externally, we see this as a perfect fit for customers with emerging or proliferating brands. These types of jobs may be too small for flexo runs and too large for multi-pass.”
Sebastien Stabel, Market Segment Manager, Carton Packaging for Xeikon said, “Together with TriState we have developed a business model as well as a technical solution to kick-off digital production. Idera is backed up by Xeikon’s own food-compliant IDERA AT inks, industrial inkjet and workflow know-how. We have worked closely with Flint Group, our partners, and most importantly our customers, to customise hardware and ink sets to address the changing needs of the corrugated market in North America and Europe.”
