This second 8-color Gallus ECS 340 handles both self-adhesive label and shrink sleeve production and offers excellent set-up efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>And now the press has been upgraded, particularly for the sake of consistency of output for customers in the personal care sector, with the installation of an AVT Helios S system. This automatic inspection system delivers 100 percent quality assurance, detecting any type of defect, including color misregister or variations, misprints, text errors, spots, splashes, die-cut problems, barcode errors and missing labels. It works seamlessly on any substrate including self-adhesive labels, embossed metallized substrates, highly-reflective holographic foils, and laminates.<\/p>\n<p>Further enhancing shrink sleeve production is a second high-speed cutting machine from HCI Converting Equipment (currently being shipped to South Africa), and a newly-installed high-speed seaming machine \u2013 a DCM ATN Sleeve3.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We doubled our capacity when we bought our first HCI machine, and expect to double capacity again when the second machine is commissioned,\u2019 reveals B\u00f6gl.<\/p>\n<p>The recently-commissioned DCM ATN Sleeve 3 seaming machine is described by B\u00f6gl as \u2018a gamechanger\u2019. He focuses especially on the exceptional quality of the seaming and the soft shoulders achieved \u2013 particularly relevant in the personal care market where on-shelf aesthetics are of paramount importance.<\/p>\n<p>This investment, says B\u00f6gl, is further boosting the company\u2019s market share for shrink sleeves. \u2018It has improved our output by a factor of four, and has significantly reduced our waste levels,\u2019 he declares. \u2018In turn, these waste savings are minimizing our payback time on this vital investment.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Thanks to these additions, we\u2019re pumping out shrink sleeves in ever increasing numbers and ever-improving quality,\u2019 he continues. \u2018These significant investments in printing and finishing technology and ongoing staff training are factors that help us to open new doors, not only in the Western Cape and South Africa but further afield. We now have customers throughout sub-Saharan Africa, and continue to grow our business by providing a more complete and competitive portfolio of products.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>After four years of consolidation since the formation of the global All4Labels group, the Cape Town subsidiary has seen notable development, but, as B\u00f6gl sums up, the key focus remains on improving efficiency and diversifying into new markets, using its HP Indigo digital press to tackle short runs and flexo printing excellence for medium runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update on All4Labels South Africa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since the above article was written, there has been a significant change at All4Labels South Africa: MD, Uwe B\u00f6gl has left the company to establish his own business, packwise-africa, representing a remarkable portfolio of products from leading-edge European and Asian OEMs, with the intention of delivering the best equipment and ancillaries to South Africa\u2019s and Sub-Saharan Africa\u2019s narrow-web and mid-web packaging markets.<\/p>\n<p>And now, intent on stamping All4Labels\u2019 global footprint on the Cape Town-based South African subsidiary of Germany\u2019s All4Labels Global Packaging Group, is a new man at the helm, Marco De Pizzol. Although still a young man, Marco is balancing two significant portfolios: in addition to his responsibilities as All4Labels director of operations for APAC and Africa, he has also been named as MD of All4Labels South Africa. But there\u2019s no doubt he\u2019s well qualified for these multiple duties, having been with the group since 2015, holding down several global management positions.<\/p>\n<p>A meeting with Marco De Pizzol and sales director Dave Parsons, who has played a key role in the South African business since 2013, reveals a fresh structure and renewed impetus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>But the good news, admits MD Uwe B\u00f6gl, is somewhat tempered by the fact that 2019 proved disappointing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2196,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,24,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3899","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-people-de","category-company-de","category-events-de"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 -
