The configuration of the new press
includes six UV–flexo units, hot air dryers, a die-cutting module, a laminating
unit, and a turn bar to facilitate reverse-side cutting. The Nilpeter has a top
speed of 228 meters per minute (750 feet per minute). Having two Nilpeter
FB-2500 presses, CV Labels can easily keep up with the demand for pressure
sensitive label production from its pharmaceutical, medical, and electronics
clients.
Bob Veitch established CV Labels in
1989 and quickly identified the customer opportunities best suited to his
team’s skills, such as specialised substrates, security inks, and encoded
labels for blood transfusion bags. The company also supplies sterilization
labels with colour changing inks, syringe labels and cryogenic products for
liquid nitrogen freezing. CV Labels are the only Scottish label manufacturer to
attain the coveted P.S. 9000:2011 pharmaceutical quality certified supplier
status.
CV Labels Production Manager, Ricky
Weatherston commented, “Recently we refurbished and extended our factory, which
presented us with the opportunity to accommodate the second Nilpeter”. Ricky
went on to say, “Our first Nilpeter has been running high quality labels since
it was installed eighteen months ago and to date we have experienced the
reliability and maintenance levels which we expected. This gave us confidence
to invest in the second press”.
Susan Veitch, CV Labels Sales Director,
is keen to drive more sales for high-quality specialised labels, hoping that
the company will soon have to invest in a third Nilpeter.
