For Neopac, the infrastructure infusion includes the recently announced innovation in high-definition technology for its Velox IDS-PT™ Series system, allowing for superior digital printing quality spanning a variety of factors: high resolution photorealism, smooth gradients, sharp text or symbols, original fonts, and fine lines. The technology allows for printing on virtually any type of tube material, including Neopac’s signature Polyfoil® tubes, and eco-design substrates such as Polyfoil® MMB tubes, PCR tubes, sugarcane resin tubes, PE mono-material, and uneven surfaces such as the company’s PICEA™ wood tubes.
With Velox’s direct-to-shape digital technology, Neopac can offer an extended gamut print of colors including cap printing and 360-degree seamless decoration. Additionally, the technology allows for selective matte/gloss effects, smooth gradients, and opaque white for printing on a darker tube body.
The company has also optimized the sample process, which allows customers to validate the product before it is produced.
In addition to the Velox system’s eco-friendly high-definition digital printing quality and inline speed of up to 250 tubes per minute, Hoffmann Neopac has made other significant strides toward more sustainable production as well. Last year Neopac installed solar power panels on its plant in Debrecen, Hungary. Among other infrastructure, the panels are used to power the Velox machine.
