Bobst UK & Ireland Ltd has hit the ground running in 2018, with booming demand. Installing eight die-cutters in eight weeks across the UK, the company is defying uncertain predictions in the wake of Brexit and demonstrating encouraging industry buoyancy.
Craig Moran, Business Director for Bobst UK & Ireland and Scandinavia, said, “Off the back of a strong finish to 2017, our excellent start to the year is a testament to confidence in British manufacturing. It shows how companies are willing to invest in the latest technologies despite tighter financial times. The market is becoming more complex and is expecting faster, shorter runs with additional functionality and operational efficiency. This requires advanced equipment designed for greater flexibility and yields, for which Bobst’s machinery is ideal. The company’s reputation in this area is reflected in robust sales figures for the first part of the year.”
New machines have been supplied to companies producing pharmaceutical and healthcare packaging, branded food and beverages, cosmetics and general carton packaging in the UK market.
