Vietnamese Converter Adds Vetaphone Corona Treatment Anlac Labels, a narrow web label converter based in Vietnam,has turned toVetaphone’s corona technology, which has been fitted to its range of flexo and digi- tal presses. The company, which is part of the Liksin Group and one of seven production facilities in the country, employs more than 150 people at its plant in Long An Province, roughly an hour northwest of Ho Chi Minh City. Established in 1999 as Liksin Labels Printing Enter- prise, the company installed its first European narrow web press in 2001, a Nilpeter, before founding Anlac Labels in 2004. During that time, a variety of UV flexo and water-based press technology has been added. Anlac was the first manufacturer in Vietnam to attain ISO 14001:2014 prior to moving to its purpose-built 5,000 square-meter facility in Tan Duc Industrial Zone in 2011. The converter’s labels include added-value techniques such as hot and cold foil, embossing, coat- ing, lamination and the use of holographic foil for both decoration and product protection. Anlac supplies a diverse range of industries, includ- ing pharmaceutical and health and beauty, as well as lubricants and agro-chem in the industrial sector and the customary FMCG products like food, drink, and ap- parel. In addition to paper-based substrates,Anlac also uses PP, PET and PVC. All four of the Vetaphone units are the standard nar- row web VE1A type and are fitted to 8-color presses that vary from 10 to 20 years in age.Typical job lengths at Anlac are 100,000 to 200,000 linear meters, run at around 120 m/m, with a split of 65:35 between paper and film substrates.
