Packon Basim Printing & Packaging inc. has chosen the HT 2100 chroma rotary die-cutter from Koening & Bauer Celmacch

Founded in 1996, Packon Basim was born as Patrol offset (as the local name „Patrol Ambalaj“), starting its manufacturing life in a 80 sqm workshop based in Istanbul. After 3 years, Packon Packaging began to print catalogues and to work as continuous form production. Starting from 1999, Packon expanded its production volume with new machinery investments and it began to produce offset printed cardboard boxes. In the next years, with its 13.000 sqm high-tech production plant in Pendik, Istanbul, and the design center that employs exclusively expert and high-skilled staff, Packon Basim works in accordance with the national and international standards within the legal regulations and it offers services and products not only in Turkey but also abroad, thanks to a well-deserved reputation for its very high and continuously increasing quality and competitiveness, according to customer demands and needs. The Turkish Company, which has become a leading brand in its sector, produces nowadays all kinds of packaging made of paper, cardboard and corrugated cardboard, for many sectors such as food, medical, automotive, electronics, household appliances, construction, stationery, cosmetics, chain merchandising. Packon Packaging always gives priority to be an innovative company and it offers professional services to its customers. Their environmental-friendly production continues its journey with main goal of leaving a clean and livable world to the future generations, and it develops solutions to prevent waste in continuous production.

At the end of 2022, Packon Basim chose to widen its own machine stock with a high performance Koenig & Bauer Celmacch Chroma CUT Rotary Die Cutter High Tech, with 6 bottom printing units and a Vacuum Stripping Stacker.

ChromaCUT High Tech is Koenig & Bauer Celmacch’s top of the range model, with features that make it unique in its industry. Chroma CUT HT reaches a maximum speed of 10,000 sheets per hour, ensuring maximum printing quality and high productivity.

Since Packon has a background in the offset printing, the need was to invest in a rotary machine for ultra-high definition flexo printing. For the Customer, having a machine that could be very fast in job changes and that could ensure a very high degree of automation was a key factor.

In order to satisfy Customer’s requests, the machine was equipped with four Automatic Anilox Changeover Systems, which are able to hold up to three anilox cylinders per printing unit, one Automatic Register Control System that aims to speed up the register process during the start-up, and six Koenig & Bauer Celmacch IR and hot air Drying Systems, which guarantee very high printing results also on coated paper and a fast drying process due to the combination of infra-red lamps and hot air. The inking system is equipped with carbon chambered doctor blade systems developed by Koenig & Bauer Celmacch.

We are extremely satisfied with the partnership with Packon Basim. We are convinced that we have found the right partner to develop an excellent technical and commercial relationship and we are committed to developing our business activities in the Turkish market.
