SLAGELSE, Denmark—MP+H Packaging, large supplier to the pharmaceutical, medical and health care industries, has acquired a state-of-the art Nilpeter FA-22 to expand capacity and to keep up with the demand brought about by COVID-19 in the wide medical industry.
Manchester-based MP+H Packaging supplies and manufactures printed flexible packaging and labels, including sachets, pouches, flow wrap, top and base web constructions for the pharmaceutical, medical, nutraceutical, veterinary, health care, and health and beauty sectors. Accredited BRC grade AA High Risk in packaging and packaging materials, MP+H offers experience and technical expertise within a tight team framework, which ensures that customers receive one of the best combinations of cost, service and flexibility, in conjunction with competitive lead times.
The new FA-22 is a great fit, and complements the existing press portfolio at MP+H Packaging. While providing additional web width, it allows more flexibility with product sizing and increasing numbers printed across the web. The press further enhances MP+H’s high-quality production for print, register and color control, and this will be further complemented by 100 percent inline pharmaceutical inspection systems, including color control software.
Marc Bradley, managing director, MP+H Packaging, said, “As a business, our focus is high-grade pharma and medical work, and this new Nilpeter press will go a long way to help us keep up with the demand brought about by COVID-19 in the wide medical industry.”
“The addition of our latest Nilpeter press ensures that we, as a company, further continue to support our business sectors with the very latest printing technology available. The new web width takes us into new packaging formats and complements our existing and future customer base, in their growth patterns, into wide and fast packaging machines and formats.”
“The press gives us further optimization to our current Nilpeter lines in ‘pure’ efficiency. It was a completely different way to buy a press in the current climate (Zoom meetings and sign off with an installation Factory Acceptance Test), but we had every confidence in the delivery of our requests for this Capital Expenditure.”
Nick Hughes, managing director, Nilpeter, said, “Thanks to our mutual cooperation, the press was installed, and up and running in less than a week despite COVID-19 restrictions. It was a great effort by all parties involved.”
