Austrian-based specialist label papers and flexible packaging papers producer Brigl & Bergmeister will have its NiklaPET label papers demonstrating their print speed and versatility on printing press manufacturer Heidelberg’s presses at this year’s Ipex exhibition at Birmingham’s NEC in May.
Brigl & Bergmeister’s exclusive UK agent Papico took an order for 100,000 sheets of NiklaPET, in weights of 80-85gsm, which will be delivered to the show and put through its paces on three of Heidelberg’s high performance presses.
NiklaPET was chosen by Heidelberg to not only show off the versatility of the presses, but also to demonstrate how well and how easily the respective presses will run high quality label paper, and also how quickly they can alternate from board to lightweight paper, without impeding upon the production speed.
In addition NiklaPET is the most widely run label stock, which means that Heidelberg’s packaging customers who come to the stand will be able to relate to the paper and labels being run on the presses.
NiklaPET is a white, gloss label paper, with high brightness, good opacity and adapted wet glue values, which make it suitable for all common printing purposes. NiklaPET meets every labelling requirement. It gives very good results in both offset and flexographic printing applications, due to its quick ink drying.
NiklaPET can also be varnished, is suitable for foil and relief stamping as well as all common gluing systems with its high labelling speed and excellent glue consumption.
The three Heidelberg presses that will put the NiklaPET label stock through its paces are the Speedmaster XL 105, Speedmaster XL 75 and the Speedmaster SM 52 Anicolor.
Heidelberg’s stand can be found in Hall 8 at Ipex. www.ipex.heidelberg.com
Ipex 2010 will run from 18-25 May at the NEC in Birmingham.
