Once again, a good W&H customer is making headlines. At the Packaging-Print Excellence Awards 2020 ceremony Packaging World Company of Pinetown, South Africa, was able to convince the FTA-jury (Flexographic Technical Association Of South Africa) with its print products.

Award-winning packaging was printed on W&H MIRAFLEX

Packaging World received one Silver Award, 3 Gold Awards and the Best-of-the-Show Award in the categories Flexible Packaging / Medium Web, Flexible Packaging / Wide Web and Flexible Packaging / Wide Web Process Colors.

The press has been in operation at Packaging World since 2017 and impresses not only with its consistently high print quality over the years, but also with its high availability and effectiveness in permanent operation. According to the customer, around 220 different images are set up and printed per month. Simple and practical operating features with useful automatic modules support the printer at makeready processes.

Outstanding print quality and reliability

In addition to the outstanding print quality, Packaging World particularly appreciates the reliability of the MIRAFLEX. "You just notice that the press is not only designed at the mechanical and printing limits, but there are always reserves that clearly have an effect on the printing performance and the permanent stability of the press," says Dean Gianni, Owner and Managing Director of Packaging World. "And should a malfunction occur unexpectedly, Windmöller & Hölscher is always comprehensively available for trouble shooting via the information and diagnostics center (IDZ) and the direct 24/7 hotline with remote service or also via the worldwide sales and service network. This is not only a decisive advantage for us as printers, but also creates maximum delivery reliability for our customers," continues Dean Gianni.

The award-winning print products and the consistently positive long-term experience of Packaging World in South Africa are further proof of the outstanding position of MIRAFLEX in the global CI flexographic printing market. Today, far more than 700 MIRAFLEX machines are in production in all regions of the world. "The experience gained from MIRAFLEX installations and from nearly 70 years of CI press development.
