CardPak Enhances Productivity with Bobst Folder/Gluer
The pursuit of optimum efficiency, the desire to offer brand owners additional marketing options, and to further diversify their own business were a few of the driving forces behind CardPak’s decision to add the new Bobst VISIONFOLD. “Blister cards were about 90 percent of our business, now they’re only about 50 percent. Not because we’ve reduced that business sector, it continues to grow, but because we’ve expanded and grown into other markets by adding capabilities and increasing our manufacturing capacity. Folding carton is one of the areas we’ve expanded into. Adding the VISIONFOLD allowed us to eliminate a bottleneck and allows us to perform more complex folding. The installation also gave us greater versatility within the operation and allowed us to open 20-25 percent of additional capacity. In addition to letting us put more through the plant, it gives us the ability to respond to our customers’ requests faster,” explains Petrelli.
