Success for Uteco at drupa

The roto offset unit, Silver SIL, caught the full attention of visitors, along with the gravure unit V-Press 300, which was on display at the booth of Kohli Industries, Uteco’s Indian partner for this press in the Asian and Middle East markets.

Orders for 15 machines were placed at the show and more will hopefully come after all discussions and negotiations are completed. These orders included: five Onyx 8C-CI for Flexible Packaging, three for South American customers, and two for East European customers, including an 8C-CI press for big repeats to an important converter in Slovakia. A package of an 8C-CI flexo press and a solventless laminator for food applications was sold to a Romania-based company. In addition, two 8C-CI wide web flexo presses for big print repeats were sold to a key converter based in Russia and Serbia, two 10C-CI went to the USA, and an in-line coating machine for special application was purchased by a German company.
