the foresight to invest in another relatively new suppli- er to North America: Engico, the Italian manufacturer of box making machinery. Represented by Haire Group, the first installation of Engico’s Jumbo in North America was in 2006 at Lawrence Paper Company. In 2019, a second Engico was installed in Jayhawk Boxes in Fremont; a third Engico replaced the first machine in Lawrence in 2020. “Renaldo Benzoni (Engico’s founder and mastermind behind the technology) had some patents on some very in- novative engineering,” says Hill. “After doing our research, we thought it was the best Jumbo Flexo Folder Gluer we could find in the world, especially with the side slotting, die cutting, stitching and gluing all in one machine. It was almost like having an entire sheet plant in one machine!”

“Some of the other patented features we really like are the ability to do side slots without a cutting die, and the dual 99-inch and 66-inch cylinder die cutters that allow us to die cut up to 99-inches through the machine, as well as using the 66-inch printers to print a sheet up to 99-inch- es without overprinting on the portion of the box beyond 66-inches.” Packard is also impressed with the efforts and deter- mination of the Italian manufacturer. “Engico is a small company and they worked very hard to help us, but the pandemic made it extremely difficult,” he says. “With the restricted travel requirements, they couldn’t get someone here even if they had someone to get here. They deserve a lot credit for their hard work. The machine continues to Lawrence Paper Company’s newest equipment pur- chase is its Bobst DRO, which was installed in May and was in full production by June. An Alliance prefeeder and an AG Stacker machine were added to the front and back end of the DRO to manage its high production speeds. The DRO replaced a first-generation Apstar.
