The relationship between Koenig & Bauer Celmacch and VPK Group is further strengthened. Recently, the OEM installed, in a record time of just eight days, a new Chroma High Tech 2100, six colour, offline version with a high-pile vacuum stacker. The installation was undertaken in Saint-Just-Malmont, France at Viallon Emballage, a VPK Group company.
“This is a great achievement, because this installation allows us to list another successfully concluded contract with the world-renowned VPK Group,” says Luca Celotti, CEO, Koenig & Bauer Celmacch. “It was great working with such an important company as Viallon Emballage, a family business with experience dating back to 1964, which nowadays is one of the leading independent players in the corrugated market and since 2020 part of the VPK Group.”

Well specified machine
To expand its machine park, Viallon Emballage chose to invest in a new Chroma High Tech 2100 HD, equipped with six printing units, in off-line configuration with high pile stacker. The new machine has been specified to meet the highest standards of quality and innovation, thanks to the technological offering of Koenig & Bauer Celmacch.
