Indonesia’s label printer Master Label has acquired a 22-inch Nilpeter FA-Line with 12 UV-flexo printing units, gravure, and cold foil. This is the largest Nilpeter flexo press installed in the Southeast Asian country.
A trusted label consultant
Like Nilpeter, Master Label is a family-owned company with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. Master Label supplies health and beauty labels for high-end brand owners in the region. The company also supplies labels and flexible packaging products in food and beverage, household care, pharmaceuticals, special chemicals, specialty and smart packaging industries. Master Label’s clients are qualified suppliers and market leaders in the in the local and international markets. This has helped them provide high quality value-added solutions to their customers and remain Indonesia’s leading label supplier.
Installation during the COVID-19 crisis
The 22-inch Nilpeter FA-Line was delivered to Master Label at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. This made it a very challenging installation. Nevertheless, the respective teams worked tirelessly to complete the task, adhering to all social distancing guidelines.
The new press provides high level of stability, register tolerance, and print results on multiple substrates. Normal self-adhesive materials, including flexible packaging films, polymer films, metallic films, and paper run efficiently on the press. In addition, the FA-Line’s open frame provides easy access for quick job setups and changeovers.
The ideal choice
“Nilpeter’s FA-Line is the ideal choice for us to further cement our position as Indonesia’s premier printing company. We look forward to a long and fruitful partnership with Nilpeter for printing presses, consumables, and ancillary equipment,” says Dharmadi Bongso, owner of Master Label.
“The new investment will take Master Label to a new level through higher production efficiency and printing quality. The new FA-22 is configured to meet all demands from the market, while also exploring new opportunities. We have run shrink sleeves, PE-material, tobacco, and long-run label jobs on the press. The fast changeovers, easy setup and extremely good material handling features of the press have benefited us a lot. The technical specification of the press enables us to cater to the label printing as well as the growing flexible packaging market,” says Bongso.
Credit to commitment
The order from Master Label is a direct result of Nilpeter’s intensified effort in Indonesia. Nilpeter Asia Pacific has been operating a sub-company from Jakarta since the beginning of 2018. The company based in the industrial area of Chikarang, has a team of sales, administration and technical staff.
”This is a credit to our commitment to the Indonesian market. Since our new office in Jakarta was established, we have been able to support the Indonesian Nilpeter users even better. We already have a 24/7-hotline service in place on all Nilpeter presses, but the physical presence is sometimes required. Delivering great service to our customers is really important to Nilpeter. Our team in Jakarta is able to support all of Indonesia instantly,” says John Andersen, managing director, Nilpeter Asia Pacific.
“Although Nilpeter and Master Label have been working together for years, this is the first time that Master Label has installed a Nilpeter press of this unique configuration. We are really happy to see the partnership strengthen and look forward to support Master Label in the future. Needless to say, Master Label is strongly underlining their position as a leading printer in the region,” he concludes.
