As customary when attending the Labelexpo series of
events, Bobst will put on a grand show on its stand #D10 at the first edition
of the Labelexpo Southeast Asia, taking place 10 – 12 May 2018 at BITEC in
Bangkok, Thailand.
Following the huge crowd turnout recorded at the
Labelexpo Asia exhibition in China in December 2017 and given the comprehensiveness
of the exhibits, displays and activities planned for the upcoming event, the Bobst
stand will be one of the largest at the show. “The Southeast Asian market has
been keeping us very busy of late. The label and packaging industry is booming
and the interest in our range of solutions is high and continues to grow”
comments Matteo Cardinotti, Managing Director of Bobst Firenze and Head of Bobst
Narrow & mid-web multi-process Product Line “The event is a great
opportunity for showing our equipment live to a wide number of converters in
the SEA region and we are gearing up to provide them with a memorable
experience when they visit our stand”.
The Bobst M1 line, a press dedicated to label
production, will be the star of the show with seven daily printing and inline
converting demonstrations (five on 12 May). “We launched the new M1 Line,
configured with mechanical line shaft and laser pre-register and automatic
register at Labelexpo Europe just over six months ago” explains Matteo
Cardinotti “And I am pleased to say that because we never stop upgrading the
performance of our equipment, the 8-color M1 UV flexo press on show will offer
even more, further extending the range of filmic applications that can be run
on the line”.
Alongside solutions dedicated to label printing,
most Bobst machines in the inline UV flexo range are suitable to be configured
for applications serving the needs of labels, flexible packaging and folding
carton packaging manufactures. This flexibility opens up for converters a
variety of untapped opportunities of product diversification to enter new
markets which visitors to the stand will be interested to learn about. The
latest developments include the M5X line, also presented last year, whose
optimized fixed configuration combines the flexibility and quality of labels
and packaging production with the attractiveness of the level of investment and
the short delivery time.
Other Bobst solutions that visitors at Labelexpo
Southeast Asia will be able to discuss with BOBST experts include CI flexo and
gravure printing presses and laminators which are especially effective for mid-
to wide-web short run production, as well as the range of silicone, adhesive
and pre/post coating lines and vacuum metallizing solutions suitable for a
great variety of applications in the label and flexible packaging manufacturing
industry.
Present as always on the Bobst stand will be
samples highlighting excellence in process technology, as well as displays
illustrating Bobst products and services portfolio. Information on the
benchmark service offering will demonstrate to visitors the extent of the
support which Bobst customers can always rely on.
