Tropic Plastic & Packaging renews its confidence in Comexi with the acquisition of its 5th flexo press
July 20, 2019Comexi, a specialist in solutions for the flexible packaging printing and converting industry, and Tropic Plastic & Packaging, a leading flexible packaging producer and one of the most modern and well-equipped plastic packaging companies in Southern Africa, have strengthened their commercial relationship.
The South-African company has acquired a Comexi F2 MB, the third within the last two years. This latest acquisition will be installed in the company’s Durban facilities. The relationship between the two companies dates back to 2011 when Tropic Plastic & Packaging purchased its first Comexi machine, a Comexi FPLUS flexographic press. Following this purchase, Tropic Plastic & Packaging acquired a Comexi F2 MP and its last three acquisitions were the Comexi F2 MB. “At the moment, Comexi is the industry leader when it comes to flexographic printing presses. Their attention to detail is immaculate and every element is tailored for our purposes”, stresses Ismail Simjee, Tropic’s managing director. “We are well positioned to take advantage of the new requirements and developments in the African packaging market, primarily as a result of our investment in innovation and partnership with great suppliers such as Comexi”, explains Simjee.
Comexi has more than 60 years of experience in the sector and this has generated a confidence that helps to explain the successful partnership with Tropic Plastic & Packaging. With the support of a reliable company, such as Comexi, Tropic has been able to take advantage of the machines’ best performances. For this reason, the South African company has not stopped investing in Comexi technology in the last 8 years.
