Delivery day for the Kiefel thermoformer at LVF Packaging's Leeds plant
UK-based converter LVF Packaging has invested £550,000 ($764,000) in the expansion of its machinery portfolio and is giving customers the option of hybrid packaging solutions.
The company has installed a Kiefel KMD 78 that increases capacity but also enables companies the option of plastics and cartonboard hybrid packaging.
A hybrid station can be added to the Kiefel KMD 78
Nigel Coates, managing director of LVF Packaging, said: “2020 was a busy year for us, especially in terms of the higher volume lines that we produce for many of the supermarkets, and it was apparent that production efficiency on our oldest Kiefel – a KMD 75 – was falling well behind our newer KMD 78s and that the time had come to replace it.
