The laminator enables the manufacturer to increase the barrier performance of the packs, which extends their shelf life and cuts down supply chain wastes.

As well as being compact, the new laminator can ensure high production and quality standards in the solventless field and improve operational flexibility at the production facility.

"We see the expansion of our lamination films range as a key area for growth going forward and this investment reflects our commitment to the market and to innovation."

Skymark technical director Paul Glover said: "The addition of this machine to our site in Scunthorpe will deliver greater operational flexibility and also release capacity from our Nordmecanica Super Combi 3000 lamination machines enabling us to deliver additional features for clients.

"We see the expansion of our lamination films range as a key area for growth going forward and this investment reflects our commitment to the market and to innovation.
