CCS Media Packaging recently installed its new RMGT Ryobi 970 seven-colour press with aqueous coating through Cyber Australia, bringing in the final piece of the jigsaw in its 12-month, multimillion dollar investment which also included a Rollem and state-of-the-art gluing line with Robatech hot and cold glue.
Cyber Australia NSW state manager George Rossiwas at the recent ProPack Packaging Forum, telling attendees about how CCS improved its business processes following the install of the RMGT Ryobi 970.
“CCS has been in the packaging market for some time. It realised that, over the years, the commercial press it had wasn’t quite reaching some of the expectations of its packaging clients and therefore, started to investigate about what packaging press it needed to run alongside its existing commercial press,” Rossi said.
“CCS produces packaging for clients in gaming, pharmaceutical, as well as high-end cosmetics and perfume, so it needed a press that could deliver on unique packaging jobs. That led to a trip to Japan with a client that owned a Ryobi 970. They liked the speed, quality and environmental capacity of the machine and invested in it.”
The Ryobi 970 is ideal for medium capacity packaging, enabling CCS to match over 90 per cent of PMS colours using the four-colour process. The machine gives the business enormous scope to meet clients’ special colours and finishing requirements, all while being printed in one pass.
“This printer represented another expansion of CCS’ capabilities. Some of the products it now produces are very high-end and boutique.”
Cyber Australia is also the agent for SBL in the region and Rossi used the ProPack Packaging Forum to announce that Immij Print & Packaging has purchased a 1050 die cutter, to be installed early next year.
“When Immij went to drupa, it did an extensive amount of research on what die cutter to buy. SBL isn’t a high-end machine, nor is it a cheaper Chinese manufactured machine. It sits somewhere in the middle. SBL is manufactured in Taiwan and the bed of the machine is made in Japan,” Rossi said.
