Rifa Etichette of Vicenza, Italy, has installed a new Nilpeter FA-17. The Italian converter calls it a game changer. Rifa serves a variety of high-end label markets from wine and olive oil to cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, chemistry, and food.

“We are very pleased with our new Nilpeter press! The best solution for each graphic project is only possible with technology that is up to par, and the new FA-17 exceeds our expectations every day,” says Rinaldo Fanchin, CEO, Rifa Etichette s.r.l. ”It is extremely easy to operate, so my printers are happy, and the quality is second-to-none. This will no doubt help us provide customized, precise, and flawless products to our customers,” he concludes.

“The new Nilpeter FA-17 will join our 10 other production lines. For this new investment we have chosen Nilpeter, as we did in 2019 with the purchase of an MO-4. We are very pleased with the stability and the quality of Nilpeter’s presses, and with the excellent technical support provided by Nilpeter Italia,“ says Alessio Fanchin, Product Manager for Rifa Etichette s.r.l.

“Despite all of the challenges presented by COVID-19, we have conducted both remote and in-person meetings, tests, and training, of course adhering to all public health guidelines,” comments Angelo Tribocco, sales manager, Nilpeter SRL. “Installation was a success and I’m delighted to continue our partnership with Rifa, helping them produce the most beautiful, high quality labels.”

“After having seen so many new presses launched by Nilpeter in my 36-year career, I’m inclined to say the new FA provides the most exciting experience – even our engineers love to install it, kind of a “plug, play & fly” solution. Printers and owners smile from ear to ear after the first weeks of production,” Tribocco concludes.

The 8-color FA-17 installed in Italy includes Quick-Change Die-Cutting, Cross-Over Unit for Multi-Layer Label Capabilities, Cold Foil, De-/Re-Lamination, UV-Lamination, and more. Designed to accommodate the printer’s ever-growing needs, Nilpeter’s FA-Line is built around the modern printing operator, with an intuitive user-interface, and fully mobile print controls. A benchmark of flexibility and modularity, the FA-Line allows printers to enhance the performance of their press with Value-Adding Units, Application, and Automation Packages, according to needs and budget.
