Operating at a higher speed than mechanical pin-feed perforation systems, the laser scribing system produces a controlled, uniform pattern of holes in several types of packaging films.

The equipment features cutting release flaps, as well as enables easier opening scribing / scoring.

It has been optimised for various materials, including PE, BOPP, PET, BOPA and laminates.

"Food safety is a top priority for Clondalkin and this investment gives our customers complete confidence in the safety of our packaging solutions."

Clondalkin Flexible Packaging Harlingen investment sales and marketing director Jack van der Heiden said: "This is a very significant investment for Harlingen and our customers.
