Papierfabrik Scheufelen from Lenningen (in Baden-Württemberg, Germany) has made the strategic decision to move into the packaging market. The tradition-steeped company presented its latest products at the leading European packaging trade fairs – FachPack in Nuremberg and Luxe Pack in Monaco – in September and October.
At FachPack, the trade fair for industrial and consumer goods in packaging, technology, surface finishing and logistics, the new premium board was on show at the stand run by Faltschachtelwerk Gebrüder Schmidt GmbH & Co. KG from Garbsen. A creative array of folding cartons and displays was printed exclusively on phoenolux “c1s” with one-sided coating in a grammage of 300 gsm. Matthias Bähre, managing director of Gebrüder Schmidt, says: “phoenolux won me over straight away, and for very good reasons. With its exceptional whites, matt silk surface and fast final processing, it’s an out-an-out winner. It offers very good printability and dries quickly. Thus we are happy to recommend phoenolux to our customers for premium applications such as cosmetics and beauty products, healthcare, luxury packaging, etc.”
Luxe Pack in Monaco, where the top manufacturers of packaging and packaging materials gather from all over the world, provided Scheufelen with an outstanding opportunity to showcase phoenolux to a truly international audience and interact with auspicious visitors and representatives from the sector. “Our premium board was extremely well received by the visitors and exhibitors at both trade fairs. We are delighted to have moved one step further towards our aim of bridging the gap between graphic applications and the packaging market with these well-placed displays of our premium board,” Horst Lamparter, Director of Sales for graphic papers, reports.
