The 31 August installation of the HP Indigo 200K, with its small footprint and automated colour-matching, is a milestone for South African flexible packaging, integrating smoothly into Ren-Flex’s operations.

The acquisition boosts Asteria’s foothold in the Dutch and broader European label market, while GT Etiketten’s customers gain access to the group’s wider technology and packaging portfolio.

Skanem operates four Bobst flexo presses, and adding Durst’s digital inkjet lets it meet changing brand-owner demands while enhancing its flexo strengths.

The press integrates into flexible packaging workflows and delivers a wider colour gamut, enabling conversion or co-production with analog flexo and rotogravure.

The new ranges give organisations more choice, based on volume, output, and workflow, with three colour and four monochrome models to suit different needs.

The partnership arrives as India’s packaging sector undergoes rapid digital transformation, with growing demand for short runs and customisation across FMCG, pharma, and e-commerce.

Baiden’s experience in industrial/specialty materials fits Nazdar’s focus on manufacturing, innovation, technical expertise, and customer partnerships across screen, digital, and flexographic inks.

Management projected strong growth from the upcoming Egypt aseptic plant and improved domestic capacity use, with EBITDA hitting a 21‑quarter high.

The partnership gives label converters, packaging printers, and commercial print houses in the region direct access to GEW’s UV/LED curing systems, enabling faster production and lower energy consumption.

The launch extends a decade-long packaging partnership between the two companies. Ocean Potion GM Rasheda Jackson said Amcor has been a great partner for years, and the work on the new mineral sunscreen line was no different.
