Kyoshin Paper and Package chose a Heidelberg Primefire 106 as its next digital press as the company plans to expand its web-to-pack business.
Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) will install the digital printing system in Kyoshin Paper and Package´s brand-new Kanto plant this summer.
In 2013, the company expanded its packaging business by launching a web-to-pack service called “Hacoplay,” which focuses on the demand for small size and small quantity with digital presses.
The company requested a print test on a Primefire 106 at drupa 2016.
“The result of the print test was excellent," said Kazuhiro Kajikawa, executive managing director of Hacoplay division. "...[W]e felt that the quality of print by Primefire 106 was the most beautiful we have ever seen. The consistency of quality between first and 500th sheets was also amazingly stable that surprised even our offset press operator who was with me for the test."
The Primefire 106 is the first available industrial digital printing press for packaging in B1 format.
