Suitable for use in controlled environments, such as the flexographic and gravure industries, the ECP has minimal components to ensure functional reliability, while operational simplicity results in fewer errors and missed splices.

Bag Converter
BW Converting’s Hudson-Sharp Inno-Lok system adds reclosable closures and bottom gussets to roll stock before filling, creating pre-zippered film for flexible packaging applications. Compatible with barrier and non-barrier structures, it helps manufacturers improve product freshness, consumer convenience, and line efficiency on conventional form-fill-seal equipment.
Hybrid Digital Label System
Mark Andy’s Digital Pro press line gives converters an efficient way to bring digital production in-house, pairing low cost to print with fast setup and flexible configurations. From entry-level dry toner to expanded hybrid capabilities, Mark Andy’s DPro PLUS and DPro MAX platforms help converters excel at shorter runs, variable data, and shifting application needs without sacrificing productivity.
