Leading print finishing equipment manufacturer, A B Graphic International (ABG), has launched both a non-stop unwinder (NSU) and non-stop rewinder (NSR) solution.

Based on existing designs by strategic partner, Kocher & Beck, the winder solutions mark ABG’s first entry into the splicing arena. A B Graphic is supplied in Australia and New Zealand by Currie Group.

Manufactured at ABG’s Spanish facility, the company says both systems will be of interest to customers with medium to long runs, looking to increase productivity, improve product quality and control or reduce material waste.

Both winder solutions have a range of applications and can be integrated with any existing set-up, including presses, finishing equipment and converters, providing customers with increased flexibility. ABG says the range of applications is endless.

ABG’s standard NSU system ensures the non-stop feed of web-type materials, while the NSR system provides continuous rewinding of a self-adhesive matrix produced with a label cutting and printing process.

“Our winder systems complement our portfolio of finishing solutions, providing customers with complete flexibility, especially as they are so adaptable to your current set up, said Matt Burton, ABG’s global sales director.
“As an added plus, we fully expect that both systems will help provide productivity improvements, helping our customers generate ROI quickly, which will be more than beneficial to their efficiency as a business”.

Oat Milk Goodness (OMG) Group’s Barista Oat Milk will now be available in over 350 additional Woolworths supermarkets from November, with the brand receiving a notice of distribution increase for its popular oat milk.

The impact of Woolworths reducing Ingham’s supply contract became clear on Friday, when the country’s largest chicken processor presented its FY25 results and reported a 10.2 per cent drop in net profits to $89.8 million. Revenue was $3.1 billion, a drop of 1.5 per cent.

Bega Group reported $3.5 billion in revenue for FY25, with $165 million in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA). But restructuring costs from “transformational business improvement initiatives” impacted the business.
