The new Koenig & Bauer press investment underscores Patel’s dedication to provide his customers with the best possible packaging solutions while adopting environmentally responsible practices. “Our philosophy has always been to invest in cut- ting-edge technology to stay ahead of the curve and de- liver eye-catching packaging solutions,” says Patel. “This new Koenig & Bauer press enhances our production speed, precision, and color consistency, giving us the abil- ity to take on more complex and high-end packaging proj- ects while improving overall efficiency.” Patel specified that the new Rapida press be equipped with a variety of standout features such as advanced color control, fast makeready times, and LED drying technology. The ability to print with greater accuracy, reduce waste, and streamline workflow were major factors in his deci- sion.

As market demands evolve, UPBX continues to expand its reach, particularly in premium packaging solutions and sustainable materials. Color accuracy and consistency are critical for brand integrity, especially in luxury and consum- er packaging. With Koenig & Bauer’s state-of-the-art color management system, says Patel, UPBX can ensure that every run maintains the highest level of production, reduc- ing color variation and eliminating costly reprints. Operating in California requires UPBX to be excep- tionally aware of the state’s stringent environmental reg- ulations. The Rapida’s LED curing technology allows the firm to reduce emissions, lower energy consumption, and eliminate harmful solvents. “This investment reflects our ongoing commitment to sustainability and regulatory com- pliance,” says Patel. Equally impressive is the significant energy savings and improved drying speed and efficiency derived from the Rapida’s LED curing technology. Janak Patel, president of Ultimate Paper Box, has invested in a new mid-size Rapida 106 41-inch eight-color LED sheetfed press to its City of Industry, California pressroom from its long- time partner Koenig & Bauer.
