Xeikon Introduces Folding Carton Suite at drupa

"The folding carton production environment differs from self adhesive labels in many ways," says Weymans. "The self adhesive labels are common in a roll-fed environment whereas a carton is a single piece, situated in a sheet-fed environment. The Xeikon press has a distinct advantage in this regard since it's able to produce sheets of variable length. This minimizes the amount of material wasted," explains Weymans. "Xeikon has been working in this market for more than 14 years since we first introduced our B2 technology. This has enabled us to gain a wealth of knowledge and experience in folding carton production."
