Premier Labellers, the pressure sensitive labelling systems manufacturer, will launch into the shrink sleeve market with its new P2000 machine at this year's PPMA Show.

The company said increasing demand from existing self-adhesive labelling customers wishing to take full advantage of the benefits of shrink sleeve labelling led it to design and developed the P2000.

The machine is able to handle a wide range of container sizes, from 28mm to 125mm in diameter and virtually any shape, as well as being able to apply a complete range of full body and tamper evident shrink sleeves with optional perforation unit.

The machine is capable of operating at speeds of up to 200 containers per minute with a maximum sleeve length of 190mm.

David Palmer, managing director David Palmer, said: "This new machine perfectly complements our existing range of self-adhesive labelling machinery and offers our customers an additional tool to create maximum impact on the shelf."

The P2000 is supplied complete with feeder and a range of heat and steam tunnels to suit each application.

It has an integrated touch screen control panel and automatic height adjustment, making changeover possible in seconds rather than minutes.

A further range of machines to handle a smaller and larger range of container containers is also available.

The PPMA Show runs from 30 September to 2 October at the NEC in Birmingham.
