BAKPAC has boosted its capacity with the installation of its second HP Indigo 200K Digital Press.

The investment bolsters the production capacity of Baker Labels’ flexible packaging division, with the firm adding that it will ensure ‘faster, high-quality’ solutions for its customers across the UK and Europe.

In line with its two-year, £5 million investment strategy, BakPac will install a third Galaxy Packtech pouch converter in November, bringing its total to four. Two additional pouch converters are expected in early 2025.

Steve Baker, MD of Baker Labels, said, “Remaining family-owned and independent enables us to make fast, strategic decisions, like adding the second HP Indigo 200K and multiple Galaxy converters. These investments reflect our focus on supporting our customers with the highest-quality products and shortest industry lead times, all while preserving the personal, customer-focused ethos that has driven our success for decades.”

Darren Godfrey, HP account manager at BakPac, added, “We are incredibly proud that BakPac has chosen HP Indigo again for this next stage of their expansion. To have earned the trust of such a dynamic, forward-thinking business means a lot to HP, and we’re thrilled to support BakPac’s ongoing success with the power and reliability of the HP Indigo 200K.”

With expanded capacity from the HP Indigo 200K, BakPac said it is set to better meet the needs of brands requiring quick, high-quality, and customised packaging. This investment allows it to compete in a broader market by offering digitally printed solutions that were traditionally limited to larger-scale production, now available in flexible runs, it added.

“The second HP Indigo 200K gives us the flexibility and capacity to provide solutions to a wider range of clients,” Steve continued. “We’re excited to continue innovating with HP as we push the limits of what digital printing can do for flexible packaging.”
