Complete Design & Packaging Invests In Koenig & Bauer Allpro Concord, North Carolina based Complete Design & Pack- aging, a producer of custom corrugated packaging and point-of-purchase displays, announced a recent invest- ment in a Koenig & Bauer Allpro 145 folder gluer. “Quick turnaround time is key for our customers,” says Keith Furr, General Manager, CDP. “We were finding that our post press department was becoming a bottleneck and getting congested as our com- pany grew. We needed a new high speed folder gluer to allow us to respond to our customers’ demands. This ac- quisition will enhance our existing capabilities. As part of our ongoing dedication to our customers, this significant investment underscores our commitment to delivering the highest quality solutions and meeting the fast turnaround needs of our customer base.” The company’s three-building facility outside of Char- lotte is home to the latest technology and machinery all operated by its 200 skilled employees. This includes an existing Koenig & Bauer folder gluer, which Furr praises for its durability, productivity, and fantastic results. Furr believes that his operators will have an easy adjustment moving from the current folder gluer to the new Allpro 145. “Nearly everything that we print gets glued. Having the Allpro 145 will give us additional flexibility to produce smaller boxes on a variety of substrates than our other four folder gluer machines,” says Furr. “It will offer us new capabilities and new features. We’re very excited to get it installed.” The new folder gluer will also contribute to a better working environment for CDP’s post press employees. Furr admits that the folder gluer team works the most over- time of all company employees, especially during the past eight months. The new Allpro 145 will help to relieve those extra overtime hours. “Due to our digital capabilities, we change over our jobs much faster than our competitors and exceed our turnaround times,” said Furr. “We have a solid reputation for producing orders much faster and less costly. While all packaging types serve an important purpose, our focus lies within custom-designed, high graphics point-of-purchase displays, e-commerce packaging, and the components that accompany them. Our new Koenig & Bauer Allpro 145 will be key in boosting our capabilities in the post press department.” For more information, visit koenig-bauer.com .
