Modern folding cartons to meet the most demanding design and quality requirements: cost-effective and quick to produce with Openair® Plasma
The
trend in the packaging industry is toward
continuously rising design and quality requirements. Manufacturers
count more and more on the appeal of finishes like high-gloss
printing, soft-touch coatings,
or hologram printing to attract consumers. And display and window
packaging often involve special combinations of materials.
These
materials must be joined
to each other cost effectively, at high speeds, and most of all
reliably. This requires an especially robust, high-performance
pretreatment process: Openair® Plasma.
When
integrated inline, plasma activation creates ideal surface properties
for subsequent process steps, such as gluing, printing or laminating.
Particular advantages of Openair® Plasma technology in manufacturing carton packaging:
- Makes high processing speeds possible
- No open flames mean greater process safety.
- Robust, durable technology
- Simple process monitoring
- Cost effective
