Amcor Announces Expanded Capabilities in Milwaukee, WI Plant

Amcor Flexibles announced the addition of a new press in Milwaukee WI, allowing flexographic printing, gravure coating and slitting to occur in a single pass.
 
The additional capacity from the press and slitter will support demand for high-quality coated healthcare grade paper and film.
 
“We are thrilled for this opportunity to continue to support the needs of our medical customers with the best coated products to meet the demanding needs of medical device manufacturers,” said Chris Cosgrove, VP and GM, Amcor Flexibles Americas. “With this expansion, our Milwaukee facility is perfectly poised to deliver the value and service that our customers have come to expect.”
 
The simplicity of the MP4 Press will allow Amcor to offer better performance at a competitive cost for customers. The new equipment is slated for delivery in early 2017.
