HON-ING, a leading Croatian packaging printer and long-time Nilpeter customer, has expanded its production with the first Nilpeter FA-26 press in the Adriatic region.
Strengthening a long-standing partnership
For years, HON-ING, has relied on Nilpeter’s flexographic solutions to drive its business forward. The company has previously invested in multiple Nilpeter presses, including the FA-3300, FA-6, FA-22, and FA-4. Their continued trust in Nilpeter highlights the Danish manufacturer’s ability to deliver high-quality solutions for label and flexible packaging production.
“Nilpeter has always been our preferred partner in flexo printing. Their technology, reliability, and support have consistently enabled us to stay ahead of the curve. With the FA-26, we are now ready to expand our capabilities in flexible packaging, meeting the growing demand for high-quality, sustainable packaging solutions,” says Željka Kašnar, Executive Director, HON-ING.
Opening the FA-26 market in the Adriatic region
Nilpeter’s FA-26 is designed specifically for the flexible packaging market, catering to the increasing demand for short-run, high-quality, and sustainable production. The press offers a 26″ web width, high-speed performance, and a modular platform, allowing for seamless integration of additional processes such as lamination, cold foil, and gravure coating. This makes it an ideal solution for flexible packaging converters looking to enhance efficiency and print quality.
“HON-ING’s investment in the FA-26 is an important step for the region and strengthens Nilpeter’s position in mid-web flexo printing for flexible packaging,” says Alex Aarslew-Jensen, International Sales Manager at Nilpeter.
Jani Lasic, CEO of Conatus, Nilpeter’s partner in the region, adds,
“HON-ING has been a loyal and valued customer for years, and we are proud to support them as they take this next step. “The market and opportunities with their new FA-26 are substantial, and we look forward to growing even further together with them.”
Meeting the demands of a changing market
The global flexible packaging industry is evolving rapidly, with an increased demand for sustainable solutions, shorter lead times, and high-quality print production.
HON-ING’s new FA-26 investment positions the company at the forefront of this trend, enabling them to offer advanced flexible packaging solutions, while maintaining the high level of quality and service which their customers expect. With the new FA-26, they can achieve an even wider format and higher speeds – with an expected speed increase of more than 50%. With this move, HON-ING is not only strengthening its own market position but also paving the way for further development of mid-web flexo printing in the Adriatic region.
The FA-26 is expected to be delivered before this summer.
