In addition, printing and lamination will be conducted in a white room environment to minimise contamination risk.

Second phase of the modernisation programme includes the entire converting department of Halle into ISO Class 8 cleanroom conditions. It is planned to take place in the third and fourth quarter of 2020.

The shift to new equipment is expected to close in the first quarter of 2021.

Coveris CEO Jakob Mosser said: “Our high reputation in medical packaging is the result of a many decades long dedication to this market. This huge investment program is a serious commitment to support our customers to achieve the highest levels of quality and cleanliness also in the future.”

In February this year, Coveris revealed a new investment in its Kufstein plant, Austria, to expand capacity.
