Nilpeter’s FA-26 is once again in the spotlight, and with good reason
Nilpeter’s FA-26 is once again in the spotlight, and with good reason. Over the past few years, the press has made a tremendous impact on the global market. While it has long been a proven success in the United States, it is now firmly establishing itself across Europe, with recent installations at Reflex Group in the UK, Logett in Austria, as well as in Croatia and Spain.
One of the latest examples is HON-ING in Croatia, who installed their first FA-26 this summer. Primarily dedicated to shrink sleeve production, the new press has already exceeded expectations. “The FA-26 has delivered everything we hoped for – and more. It has proven to be a real success from day one,” says Željka Kašnar, Executive Director at HON-ING.
“The FA-26 is built for value-added short run flexible packaging and labels. All inline. The robust unit construction, compact footprint, and landscape design ensure optimum register and consistent high print quality at all speeds. Especially when it comes to flexible substrates such as shrink sleeves, but flexible packaging in general, the FA-26 truly stands out, offering significant advantages and differentiating Nilpeter in a competitive market. On top of that, the latest model includes new, and updated automation features, including register, camera inspection and more, further strengthening its position as a high-performance solution,” says Carsten Clemensen, CTO at Nilpeter.
This trend reflects the direction of the print market overall, where demand for larger formats, higher speeds, and uncompromising quality continues to rise. “What we initially saw as a strong movement in the US has now firmly reached Europe. And honestly, if you can have a favourite flexo press among our many outstanding models, this is the one – our Formula 1,” explains Alex Aarslew-Jensen, International Sales Manager at Nilpeter. “That’s exactly why it makes perfect sense to showcase the FA-26 at the world’s largest stage – Labelexpo Europe.”
And the attention is greater than ever. Despite its presence at Labelexpo Europe in Brussels in 2023 and in Chicago earlier this year, the FA-26 continues to draw, and even increase, the spotlight. Constantly updated and refined, the FA-26 on show in Barcelona will be unlike anything seen before.
