New Antalis facility boasts automation demonstration suite and dedicated design studio

ANTALIS Packaging has opened its new Smart Packaging Centre (SPC), boasting a demonstration suite for automation and a dedicated design studio.

Following the initial launch of the SPC in 2018, the company revealed it has seen demand for its services grow. The new SPC provides customers with the opportunity to have samples quickly created on site.

The latest developments in packaging automation, including carton and bag on-demand machinery, are showcased in the new demonstration suite. Customers can also have demos of in-the-box systems in air cushion and paper technology that wrap, cushion and protect products.

John Garner, Antalis Packaging’s head of innovation and design, said, “A lot of our focus at the SPC is on helping customers to understand how they can future-proof their business. Having the opportunity to see automated packaging machinery working makes it easier for them to understand the features of the different machines and to visualise how it might integrate with their existing set-up.”

The new design studio offers both packaging and artwork design. Once a solution has been developed on screen, samples can be created and printed.
