MAIN: Spoilt for choice: Proliferation of yoghurt SKUs is driving demand for flexible lidding.
THIS PAGE LEFT TO RIGHT: Optimistic: Will Tompson, GM of The Van Dyke Press, believes there are big opportunities in the flexibles space.
Yumi is just one of many brands that choose The Van Dyke Press to fulfil their lidding requirements.
Full capacity: The Omet X-Flex press prints heat sealable lidding in up to eight colours.
OPPOSITE PAGE BELOW: Ready to go: The company supplies aluminium and PET lids as either die cut or reel-fed lidding to major dairy, desserts and dip customers in Australia, New Zealand and across the Pacific.
Using either sheet-fed offset or roll to roll flexographic printing, Van Dyke Press has the flexibility to print up to eight colours for heat sealable products. All finishing processes are completed in-house including varnishing, guillotining, die cutting, embossing, laminating and foiling.
“Our flexo line – an eight-colour OMET flexographic press for the manufacture of heat sealable lidding – is also close to full capacity, and when the new cutter is installed the next investment is likely to be in a new press,” says Tompson.
“We’ll probably go wider, moving
from 430 to 530mm. This will allow
us to improve our printing efficiency
and the cutting width – adding
On the subject of sustainable materials, Tompson says that apart from working on downgauging, the company is also collaborating with suppliers on new lidding materials to match the base container.
“Although aluminium is recy- clable, the collection streams are not yet available, and looking ahead – albeit way ahead – there may come a time when the lidding film has to match the cup or tray it covers so that it’s one substrate material for a single collection stream,” he says.
Whatever the future holds in terms of materials and technology advance- ments, Tompson is of the firm belief that there are major opportunities in the flexibles space, and that Van Dyke Press is well positioned to grow its foothold in the market. ■
