Waste management system from “Matho” Germany installed at Renault
Recognizing the imperative need to manage self-adhesive label waste more effectively, Palghar based Renault Paper Products Private Limited led by Mahendra Shah has installed a waste managing system supplied by MATHO Konstruktion & Maschinenbau GmbH, Germany.
Renault, established in 1999 and operating out of 22000 square feet shopfloor with nine label presses has steadily expanded by adding label embellishing capabilities to become a specialized supplier to the liquor industry besides having a host of customers from the leading FMCG brand owners. They have a range of high-end flexo and hybrid presses.
They are one of the first to have a combination label press that can produce labels with diverse technologies like Offset, Flexo, Screen printing in a single pass along with capabilities to foil and emboss. On installation of Matho, Mahendra comments, “In today’s time a clean shop floor makes the workplace more productive and space-saving does provide additional area for expansion”.
Leading label producing companies understand and try to implement the need for a cleaner and green workplace. Environmentally and socially responsible manufacturers of self-adhesive label material or converters of labels simply do not wish to dump their production waste as garbage, in open or covered spaces. Label waste matrix stripped off after die-cutting has tacky adhesive on it and is voluminous.
It attracts dust and bacteria so is a health hazard and also occupies expensive space that can be used for productive purposes. German manufacturers Matho offers waste management systems to extract the trims and matrix by suction from the slitting machine or die-cutting station to transport the main equipment to shred the self-adhesive waste without letting it stick to the sides and clogging the pipes and further blow it on to either collection bags in highly reduced space or compact it for easy disposal.
MATHO Konstruktion & Maschinenbau GmbH is a leading manufacturer of granulators and waste extraction systems for the packaging, converting, and labels industry. Headquartered in Ellwangen, Germany, and with more than 25 years of experience, the company focuses on the entire waste handling process. Their focus includes project planning, manufacturing, installation, and commissioning of waste extraction systems.
