Brilloworld buys Comexi Proslit Eikon

Brilloworld, a supplier of plastic films in Southern Europe for more than 15 years, has installed a Comexi Group Proslit Eikon slitter-rewinder in its plant in Sant Quirze del Vallès, Barcelona, Spain.
 
Brilloworld provides the flexible packaging, graphics arts and labels/over wrapping sectors with a range of films supported by strong customer service, it claims. The company’s main markets are Spain, Portugal, France and North Africa. 
 
Comexi’s Proslit Eikon has been installed in more than 70 plants worldwide, mainly in converting companies to increase productivity and improve slitting and rewinding quality. The Proslit Eikon has proven to reach a productivity of more than 320,000 linear meters in 24 hours, and in its 800m/min version it can even reach up to 400,000 meters for specific jobs. It can incorporate additional online equipment also, such as microperforation, macroperforation, bending and inspection.
 
Jordi Florensa Alegre, manager of Brilloworld, said: ‘The Proslit Eikon slitter represents a commitment to greater added value in service and logistics for our customers thanks to its features and high productivity. With the production capacities and the slitting and rewinding quality boasted by the Proslit Eikon, we can offer better finishes on the final product and improved delivery times, thus giving us much more flexibility overall.’
 
‘It has definitely been a step forward in improving productivity, quality and flexibility. We could see this from the very first day.’
 
Jordi Gorchs, product manager of Proslit at Comexi Group and head of installation, said: ‘It is precisely companies like Brilloworld that confirm the flexibility of jobs the Proslit Eikon can perform even in customers outside the converting process, strictly speaking.’
