Zumbiel is adding a Rapida 145.
The new Rapida 145 57-inch seven-color press will be delivered to Zumbiel’s new 500,000-square-foot facility in Corporex Co.’s Gateway Industrial Park in Hebron, KY.
“Historically, as our customers have grown, so have we,” says Tom Zumbiel Jr., its marketing director, and fourth-generation of the 177-year-old family-owned business. “But now the market has boosted consumer demand for our products. Our customer base has seen the need for additional food and beverage packaging for a vast majority who are eating at home. As one of the largest independent converter of paperboard packaging in the U.S., we pride ourselves on offering more choices, better innovations and customized solutions, outstanding service, and colorful branded cartons that set us apart from the competition. Our goal is to proactively design innovative packaging solutions to help our customers sell more, reduce costs and protect their brands.
“We forge deep partnerships with our customers to provide the safest, most secure, yet eye-catching cartons for their products,” Zumbiel added. “Not only are we protecting their product within the carton but we are helping to sell the product on the store shelf amid a very competitive environment. This is an on-going process as consumer taste and trends change quickly. We continue to invest in our future and our new Koenig & Bauer Rapida press is our latest acquisition to embrace our long-term vision.”
