Folding carton production – unbeatably practical, practically unbeatable
Unlimited design options, comfortable handling, sustainable materials:There are good reasons why folded cartons have been an absolute classic in the world of packaging for over 150 years. Barely any other form of packaging offers quite the same platform for brand messages. And none other can be stacked and transported as easily, both folded flat and fully assembled and filled.
But despite its timeless nature, there has been plenty of scope for innovation. Digital printing has completely reinvented folded cartons: as version-controlled short runs with variable designs for seasonal or regional variations, or even as personalised one-offs. Whether straight-line or lock bottom boxes – while the print image varies, the tried-and-tested format remains practically unchanged.
On top of this, folded cartons are also regarded as the most eco-friendly and sustainable solution thanks to their good environmental footprint: they are CO2 neutral, are manufactured from renewable raw materials and can easily be recycled several times.
Cutting, inline stripping, folding and gluing: you can do it all with KAMA!
In the development of our solutions for the folded carton market, we have taken megatrends from recent years into account and constantly incorporate new features. The focus is on machines for profitable finishing of smaller print runs in digital or offset printing – for example the die cutting and stamping machine ProCut 76 Packaging Edition and the folder-gluer FlexFold 52i. With this efficient duo you can cover the entire workflow for post-print folded carton production.
Since it is a well-established fact that almost a third of all folded cartons remains unused – e.g. due to product or marketing changes – there are persuasive arguments for your customers to switch to on-demand production. And with our machines you can also effortlessly master the growing demand for personalised packaging and finishing.
