Miyakoshi enters digital press for flexible packaging market

While marketing focus steadily shifting from a mass to a more personalized approach, and each consumer increasingly has their own individual tastes and needs, analogue printing technologies such as gravure and flexography can not always caater to such requirements.

This has lead to vendors needing to create an ever increasing variety of products but of smaller quantities, a phenomenon which has led to a constant reduction in the size of production lots.

The Miyakoshi MJP30AXF includes features such as:
*Water based ink, safe for food packaging
*Minimizing of inventories and waste helping to achieve sustainable goals
*Optimized production with a variety of small jobs on one single web
*High resolution 1200 x 1200 dpi with latest inkjet printhead technology
*Digitally printed white, enabling high quality colour reproduction
*750 mm(30 inch) print width and 50 meter per minute printing speed
*No make-ready time such as plate/drum making, and ink change.

Berry Global Group, Inc. Reports Third Fiscal Quarter 2022 Results

The net sales growth is primarily attributed to increased selling prices of $301 million due to the pass through of inflation. On a two-year basis, organic volumes were up 3%, as we reported strong organic volume growth of 5% a year ago, compared to a 2% decline in the quarter. The volume decline is primarily attributed to general market softness in industrial markets and the moderation of advantaged products related to the easing of the COVID-19 pandemic. Net sales were also impacted by a $151 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency changes and prior year quarter divestiture sales of $16 million. The operating income decrease is primarily attributed to a $22 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency, and an $11 million unfavorable impact from the volume decline, partially offset by a $28 million favorable impact from price cost spread and product mix.
