Skanem Stavanger, a Norwegian producer of self-adhesive labels, has acquired a new 9-color FA-22 from Nilpeter. In addition to providing maximum levels of stability and excellent printing results on multiple substrates, the FA-22 fits with Skanem’s commitment to sustainability, renewable products and reusable materials.

“We are fully committed to creating renewable products, from labels to wraparounds, and many other flexible packaging solutions, with a key focus on reusable materials. We work side-by-side with customers on various development projects to help them reach ambitious sustainability goals. With customers from a broad range of industries, and in many different countries, we have gained unique insight and experience that can be applied across the Skanem Group as a whole,” says Eirik Bergh, managing director of Skanem Stavanger. “The partnership with Nilpeter is no different. In addition to the high print quality, intuitive user interface and value-added possibilities, the new FA-22 is built with a clear focus on limiting waste, lowering power consumption and reducing emissions. This press fits perfectly with what we’re trying to achieve here at Skanem.”

Nilpeter’s FA-Line is a versatile flexo press, designed to accommodate the printer’s ever-growing needs and built around the modern print operator. The unit features an intuitive user interface and fully mobile print controls.

The FA allows printers to enhance the performance of their press with value-adding units, application and automation packages, according to application needs and budget. All main components are produced in-house, as well. Nilpeter’s Lean production flow and uniform facilities in Denmark and the US assure delivery worldwide.

“The process with Skanem has been very rewarding, from start to finish. I’m happy to say that when I visited the factory in November the press was running smoothly, just as advertised. We look forward to a great working relationship with Skanem Stavanger,” says Mads Aakjær, area sales manager, Nilpeter A/S.
