UK-based rigid box specialist, Pollard Group, has invested a further £200,000 in new equipment for its Leicestershire factory. The investment comes as the company is celebrating its 50th anniversary.
The company has installed a Lamina 1116 Blackline fully-automatic litho laminator to meet the demands of a significant new order from a major high street retailer. The machine was supplied by Lamina’s UK sales agent, Finishline Machinery.
The new machine will enable Pollards to produce boxes with printed liners on the insides to an extremely high standard and around three times faster than its previous method. It will further enhance the company’s reputation as a leading supplier of high-quality luxury and gift packaging solutions for a variety of markets including premium drinks, hair care and beauty.
“The Lamina 1116 Blackline meets our requirements exactly,” comments Mark Pollard, Managing Director. “It will ensure we can deliver the best quality and finish in our boxes to help customers promote their brands and further enhance the end-user experience.”
