The Bobst Novacut 106 E installed at Coveris’ 73,500 sqft site in Wisbech, UK

Packaging manufacturer, Coveris, has taken delivery of a new Novacut 106 E and secured Bobst a further two machine orders on the back of the die-cutter’s success at its Wisbech site.

Alongside Novacut 106 E, Coveris has signed a deal to install Expertcut 106 LER and Visionfold 110 A 2 at 73,500 sqft site. The leading packaging manufacturer is a ‘Bobst house’ and these latest investments enable the company to boost its skill set and maintain the ongoing development programme.

Coveris specialises in development and manufacture of multi-format packaging solutions and its clients include major retailers, manufacturers and brand owners to deliver high-performance label, film and board packaging formats.

Trevor Storr, site manager at Coveris Wisbech, said, “Having evaluated the options available to us, we opted for the performance we know and can count on. These investments will drive our efficiency along the processing line, meaning we can continue to deliver innovative packaging solutions in volume to our customers and maintain the consistent quality that our customers have come to expect from us.”

He added, “With changeover time decreased by 50% using the Novacut 106 E die-cutter, our net output has increased significantly while maintaining the overall quality of our products. The two new machines will support the installation of Novacut 106 E, strengthening our position as a full Bobst house.”
