Enhancing the product

CEI added a Nordmechanica adhesive laminator line in 2006 and an extrusion laminator in the same year, bringing the company’s coating/laminating arsenal to four extruders and two adhesive laminators. “CEI can do either extrusion or adhesive laminations,” says Nowak. “On the adhesive laminators, CEI laminates paper, foil, or film to other films on either a solventless or EB [electron beam] laminator. On the extrusion laminators, CEI can laminate paper to other paper, film, foil, or nonwovens.” The company works with a variety of substrates including paper (coated or uncoated, board to lightweight), foil, nonwoven, PET, BOPP, PE and specialty multi-layer films.
