![]() Podolsk, October 19, 2015 - on October 16, 2015 CCL Industries President of Food & Beverage Worldwide Günther Birkner and President of ARTMARK Group Ilgar Mamedov opened a new production facility CCL Kontur Shrink Sleeves in Podolsk. CCL Kontur General Manager Marat Batyrkaev addressed the attendees with welcoming speech. New production site located in Podolsk (Moscow region) became the fourth expansion of CCL Kontur facilities, with others located in Podolsk, Saint-Petersburg and Novosibirsk. ![]() New site is dedicated to manufacture of shrink sleeves — a type of packaging made from special film that shrinks when exposed to heat, taking form of the container, allowing full-surface decoration of various types of containers. One of core advantages of shrink sleeves is their resistance to physical impact and aggressive environmental factors. Another advantage is availability of various decorative options, such as inks and varnishes with thermochromic, high gloss, metallic, matte, UV-activated and other effects, which allows use of integrated innovative solutions (including security measures) and helps product to stand out among the competitors. CCL Kontur representative stated that new site used state-of-the-art printing equipment that had no counterparts in Russia. It allows combining gravure and offset printing in a single run, significantly decreasing lead time and costs. The press is also equipped with a modern visual inspection system that completely prevents release of defective goods. Production also uses eco-friendly EB-inks and materials that are safe for health and environment. Total manufacture capacities of the new site are more than 30 million linear meters per year. Jens Winkler, CCL Kontur Shrink Sleeves Commercial Director, said “New production facility is an exciting combination of world-wide experience and flexibility of local supplier.” CCL Kontur is a subdivision of CCL Industries, world leading manufacturer of labels and packaging solutions. In addition to shrink sleeves CCL Kontur manufactures pressure-sensitive and in-mold labels. |
