Irelands largest POS printer, Mcgowans Print invests in Kolbus Autobox Boxmaker

After recent investment success in a large format high-speed digital printer and digital cutting machines, Mal McGowan Owner at McGowan’s saw the demand for environmentally friendly, plastic free/void fill conscious packaging to protect their goods in transit to the end Customer.

Mal comments; “For 25 years we have been the go-to digital printing company for Irelands businesses. We now operate on over 25 digital presses working on a vast amount of substrates manufacturing quantities from 1 to thousands. The Kolbus-Autobox enables us to turn a specialised printed job from design to print, conversion, assembly and packaged in a record time. We’ve effectively taken out another link in the supply chain. The Autobox forms a strategic part of our business plan that goes hand in hand with customers’ demands for printed shorter run, bespoke, quicker turn-around, personalised, printed products.
He continues; “The thing we liked most about the Autobox was its ability to set within 60 seconds from 1 job to the next. We ran a batch of 700, 0411 style boxes within an hour and had the printed product out that afternoon. We now have the exact sized box, reducing our packaging costs considerably. We are aiming to eliminate the shipping of air as well as reducing our costs/usage on plastic, protective packaging.
