SKG invests in Italy

Smurfit Kappa Group has invested in a new seven colour high board line printer die cutter for its Lunata facility, Italy. With this new investment Smurfit Kappa will increasingly support its customers in achieving their business objectives.  Businesses will be given the opportunity to differentiate their products from competitors in an increasingly competitive marketplace. Products will be given a level of visibility never achieved in this sector, and customers will sell more with attractive and eye-catching packaging.

The print characteristics of the new machine are top of the range with the possibility of up to seven colours and up to 60 lines per cm. This is the best machine of its kind currently available in Italy, and is one of a small number available in Europe.

Supplying major national brands, pan–European customers and a wide range of customers worldwide, the Smurfit Kappa plant in Lunata aims to leverage its skills in print into the wider corrugated market, providing higher quality prints at a greater volume.
