Yorkshire Packaging Systems Ltd, the UK’s premium supplier of shrink wrapping equipment and shrink films, are delighted to announce their latest installation of a sleeve sealer and shrink tunnel into the Harwich-based factory of Premier Labellers.
Premier Labellers are not only the UK’s leading manufacturer of labelling machinery, but also provide contract packing solutions with over twenty years of industry experience. Their expertise has meant that they are the trusted go-to supplier for many household name brands including Brewdog. The company have packaged millions of different products for their customers through a range of methods, of which shrink wrapping is a popular choice.
In September, Premier Labellers approached YPS looking to replace their existing shrink sleeving equipment that had become too slow for their requirements. The equipment offered by YPS was a semi automatic sleeve sealer and shrink tunnel with gravity conveyor. Premier Labellers took advantage of the shrink wrapping suppliers’ flexible three month hire scheme where the rental costs can be deducted from any following purchase. Within just two days of agreeing the hire, Premier Labellers were up and running.
The introduction of YPS shrink wrapping equipment has delivered the increased reliability and speeds that Premier Labellers desired. In turn, it has maximised their potential to win new contracts and new customers.
‘What most impressed us was the efficiency with which Yorkshire Packaging provided the solution to our needs. After placing our order on a Thursday, the sleeving line was delivered to our site on the Friday and was commissioned the following Monday. As a result of the new equipment, our co-packing operation is much more reliable and has given us absolute peace of mind. Thank you.’ Alex Tolescu, Business Development Executive at Premier Labellers.
Jonny Braithwaite, Director at Yorkshire Packaging commented ‘It was a real pleasure to work with Premier Labellers because our businesses have many synergies. I’m very pleased that they have seen a real return on their investment and I look forward to helping them with any further shrink wrapping requirements in the future.’
