Graffica, supplier of premium equipment and services to the packaging and point-of-sale industries, will be exhibiting in-house box making solutions, along with other packaging equipment, at PacPrint this month.
A specialist in packaging machines for box making, including die-cutting, sample tables, and gluing, the company offers machines which can cater for both short and long run operations.
On show at the company’s stand will be the latest modular Kolbus Autobox automatic boxmaker, which company owner Neil Southerington said is efficient and simple to use, and “is great for any in-house or industrial operation”.
“The particular model we are going to show at the event caters to operations on the bigger end of the scale, all the way to smaller businesses that have enough volume to warrant buying their own machine for box making,” he told PKN.
“Kolbus Autobox was one of the first companies to make this type of machine, back when it was probably less popular in the industry, but today it has become one of the most popular machines we’ve sold in Australia in New Zealand.”
Southerington sees PacPrint as an opportunity for the company to connect not only with its usual clientele, but also to attract visitors from new sections of the industry.
“In the past, our customers were people who have been making boxes and corrugated cardboard boxes for years already, but there’s been a shift in the last few years,” Southerington explained.
“I have definitely seen a larger mix of new installations in the last five years – both from traditional customers and newer, smaller operations who have been thinking of implementing those capabilities in-house.
“It’s all about letting those interested companies know about what we have to offer, and PacPrint, with the massive audience it usually brings in, will be the perfect place to connect with these people to show them.”
Held at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre from 28 June to 1 July, PacPrint is the internationally recognised platform for Australian and international suppliers of printing, packaging and graphics communications technology.
It serves to generate business opportunities, with targeted, informed and motivated buyers from the Asia-Pacific region.
