Green Maple Leaf supports and strengthens Essel’s Go-Green Initiative, ensuring that we are leading the way in making meaningful contributions for a greener, better, healthier planet. Additionally, the tube has the ability to retain its shape even after repeated use and product dispensation and is available in custom theme printing. Setting a new curve to packaging innovation, Green Maple Leaf is aimed at markets demanding sustainability by replacing EVOH tubes. It provides extraordinary product stability, shelf life properties, tube resilience and feel.

Packaging has become one of the most essential components of our modern lifestyle. If you ask me to sum up the entire industry in four words, I would say- Protect, Preserve, Contain & Inform. And key drivers shaping its future will be making packages lighter, safer, more shapely & recyclable.

The CV377O system combines the company's C3000 checkweigher platform with the capabilities of its machine vision technology. The combined technology simultaneously measures product weight and performs multiple inspections of the label’s crucial information—product identification number, expiration date, and lot number—ensuring compliance with both weights and measures and product identification regulations. Its compact footprint and a single reject mechanism for both inspection technologies help shorten the production line, optimizing use of factory floor space.

The Purdue team, led by Jeffrey Youngblood, a professor in Purdue’s School of Materials Engineering, created a new manufacturing process using cellulose nanocrystals as advanced barrier coatings for food packaging. CNCs are an alternative renewable raw material derived from abundant resources such as wood and plants. They have properties including nontoxicity, biodegradability, high specific strength, high thermal conductivity and optical transparency, all of which make them excellent components for advanced food packaging.

The traditional architecture and features that qualify the die cutting press; robust frame structure, mechanical fly-wheel operation (which eliminates the problems associated with PRECO style 4-post hydraulically operated cutting presses), single cylinder positive stop adjustment for precise cutting accuracy (+/- .01mm), quick die change, ease of use, and modular design.

The die/kiss cutting press is the ideal automated converting system for many applications and suitable to cut any technical flexible material which includes:
