Smurfit’s clean sweep


Smurfit Kappa Print Vision Chelmsford received unprecedented acclaim from judges at this year’s FlexoTech Awards dinner on 19th October for producing the “Best process


print ever seen on B flute.” They were crowned the winners of the Corrugated Post- Print Category for producing a pack quality unique among B flute prints with the Bacardi Breezer Cool Box. The pack met Bacardi’s requirements for a minimal cost material but with an excellent print that could also hold ice for the Breezers in a party or barbecue environment. B flute is traditionally difficult to print on because the appearance of the flutes can destroy the aesthetics of the pack, but Smurfit Kappa use top quality sheet board combined with the skills of their printers in applying minimal pressures yet achieving a high-quality result. 8For more information call 0870 240 0361, email enquiries@smurfitkappa.co.uk or visit www.smurfitkappa.co.uk.
