Edale, the UK-based manufacturer of narrow web printing and converting presses, are delighted at the news that Bossert, the label specialist, have chosen to install another Edale Alpha at their premises in Germany.
Following on from Bossert’s take-over by Kling GmbH towards the end of 2009, both companies are using their experiences to introduce a host of new products and services. To meet this demand they have brought in the new Edale Alpha five colour UV flexo press. This compliments their other Edale press which has continued to meet expectations over the past 20 years.
Markus Baechtold, CEO, Kling, said “We needed higher print quality, improved productivity and additional features such as hot foiling which is very important in our industry”. Erik Raus, Production Director, Kling continues “Edale’s Alpha seemed to be the best solution as the press is well proven in the field and offers all the advantages of quick set-up and change-over, short web path to reduce waste, high productivity etc, whilst all leading to excellent profitability”.
An important factor in Kling’s decision to purchase an Alpha was the recent development of the Alpha-Multi, launched in March 2010. The Alpha-Multi enables existing Edale Alpha customers to ‘upgrade’ their machines with a second stack, allowing companies to print up to nine colours in a footprint of just 5m2. For Kling, this meant that the business could grow on the same flexo press concept with a staggered investment approach when the time comes to expand.
Edale’s Export Sales Director, Bernhard Grob, welcomed the Kling team during their pre-order visit, and says “It was a pleasure for me personally to speak my native Swiss German with the Kling team, and I am even more delighted to see another Alpha going into Germany”.
The current economic climate has given the Edale Alpha a huge lift as it highlights the unique commercial and productivity advantages in a very price conscious environment. This fact is confirmed with recent Alpha installations in Italy, Poland and Iran.
