BHS Corrugated Launches Litho- Lamination Alternative, NextGraphX BHS Corrugated proudly announces the introduction of NextGraphX – the next-generation alternative to tradition- al litho-lamination. This revolutionary approach combines the proven strength of a corrugator, designed by BHS Corrugated, with the cutting-edge capabilities of a BHS Corrugated single-pass inkjet printer. Featuring an optimized working width that outperforms traditional laminators, NextGraphX sets new benchmarks for efficiency, flexibility, and sustain- ability in corrugated packaging. By integrating digital preprint technology into the pro- duction workflow, NextGraphX enables converters and FMCG brands to achieve high-quality graphics, shorter lead times, and significant cost savings – all while reduc- ing environmental impact. Embedded in Corruverse, NextGraphX is part of a con- nected ecosystem designed to digitally transform every step of the production process, helping producers and converters to operate better, cheaper, and faster. To help converters operate better, NextGraphX: • Replaces the multi-step litho-lamination workflow with a corrugator-native process to achieve higher stability, stronger OEE, and more predictable planning • Streamlines production into three core steps: print > corrugate > convert • Enables high-quality graphics and added-value print- ing through the use of digital printing in the production workflow To help converters operate cheaper, NextGraphX: • Lowers the overall cost of producing high-graphic cor- rugated packaging by eliminating the expensive and complex litho-lamination stage, including cost-inten- sive PVA cold-set glues • Achieves consistently lower cost per box through light- er paper grades • Minimizes waste and increases throughput by an effi- cient working width and digital print-to-order manufac- turing To help converters operate faster, NextGraphX: • Prints multiple Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) on a single roll, eliminating the rigid setup demands of litho • Significantly shortens lead times compared to tradition- al production methods • Runs multiple jobs in parallel through multi-lane, multi- job batch printing capability “NextGraphX represents a major leap forward for high-value box producers,” said Günther Huber, Head of Business Unit Equipment at BHS. By combining state-of- the-art process technology with digital printing, we deliver unmatched efficiency and flexibility. For more information about BHS Corrugated, visit- bhs-world.com .
