Weedon invests in new laminating lineSimeon Goldstein, 8 March 2010Be the first to comment on this article Corrugated group Weedon PSC has installed a new Lunex litho laminating production line to meet growing demand for its litho-laminated corrugated packaging. The kit has been installed in a purpose-outfitted unit at the firm’s Hednesford, Staffordshire-based site and will operate alongside Weedon’s Bobst Visionfold folder-gluer and Visioncut die-cutter. Weedon said that the latest investment would allow it to boost existing capacity, manufacture new products and secure the jobs of its staff. Managing director John Weedon said: “We have seen strong growth in demand for litho-laminated corrugated, including micro-fluted materials, over the past 12 months. “Within this growth there has been a noticeable increase in orders for retail-ready packaging. “Combined with our recent Bobst investment, this machine will give us a huge increase in capacity for on-shelf and PoS display products, enhancing our quality print offering to the market.” Weedon has been in business for 22 years and supplies a range of corrugated, retail-ready and transit packaging formats. It also provides contract packing and filling services to a range of companies including Asda, Black & Decker, Tesco and Northern Foods.
