Gustavo Cuata, CEO, Heiber + Schröder, has confirmed the company has secured a two machine order from MIR Packaging, the Hertfordshire, UK-based packaging producer. The two machines are the CE1000-2 carton erector model, which is ideal for running cartonboard bakery trays, conical trays or even sealed trays. The machines will be delivered in the first half of 2022.
“When it comes to tray production or carton nesting, the CE1000 is a first class solution in terms of productivity and ease of use,” explains Cuata. “MIR Packaging came to visit our site in Germany and ran trials of some pack types and placed the order very quickly. But what is most interesting about this order is the fact that MIR Packaging are not folding carton converters! They are specialists in the production of XPS boxes for all types of food products. They were looking for ways to create more sustainable packaging solutions for their food-service customer base, so the addition of folding cartons is a strong move for them. With the CE1000-2 equipment, they will rapidly expand into the production of carton-based food packaging, which is sure to allow for significant future growth. We are excited to be working with them.”
“Our company has gained an enormous wealth of experience and skills in the food packaging field during its operation over the last decade,” explains Ozgur Nayir, Director, MIR Packaging. “In our factory in Hertfordshire, we have been producing quality XPS boxes and containers for all sectors of the food industry. Our reputation has secured us a customer base that covers the UK as well as Europe. We use the latest technology in our production process and constantly strive to meet our customers’ expectations. Constant innovation is high on our list of priorities as we value your needs, and our dedication to high quality production is achieved by our adherence to high quality standards, so adding the Heiber + Schröder equipment will allow us to offer sustainable, cartonboard packaging to our customers moving forward.”
