IBIS Integrated Bindery Systems will be using Hunkeler Innovation Days (HID) in Lucerne, Switzerland, from 24 to 27 February 2025 to unveil its Smart Label-binder that will set new industry standards in label production.
The new Smart Label-binder, a variant of the company’s well established Smart-binder, has been optimised to produce ‘Extended Content’ Labels (ECLs). During HID the Smart Label-binder will produce Pharma ECLs using lightweight (45 g/m2) ‘OP medical’ printed stock and IBIS’s advanced ‘ISG’ glue binding technology
The Smart Label-Binder will be running on the Screen stand at HID in hall 2, stand P7.
The Smart Label-binder has been developed following consultations with major label company manufacturers and includes world first technology advancements. It will be fed from a Hunkeler roll unwinder and web cutter using Screen printed rolls during the four days of the show.
John Cracknell, managing director of IBIS, said: ‘With market expectations of a continued sharp growth path for the global pharmaceutical labelling market that is expected to be in excess of £9 billion in 2025 with anticipated year on year growth of more than 11%, we are confident that digitally printed ECLs (extended content labels) will be an increasing future demand.
‘As a market leading integration partner, we can’t wait to be at Hunkeler Innovation Days to demonstrate connection, automation and efficiency and reveal more details and unique advances of our new Smart Label-binder. At this HID 2025 we are powering print connections on the Screen stand but we are proud of all the printer suppliers we work with globally to provide our world renowned IBIS Smart-binder machine range. Make sure you visit us in Lucerne!’
