VPK Group nyheter

VPK's site in Courcelles (Belgium) - Cartonneries de Wallonie (CDW) - specialises in smaller production runs and digital printing. The investment in a new digital printer will enable the site to offer a higher product quality, a wider product range, and better service.

In April, the production site in Erembodegem upgraded its folders-gluers production to boost the existing capacity.  An automated production step enables usboth to improve safety on the work floor and to process more boxes per hour.

As a producer of sustainable packaging, we offer a variety of logistic solutions as part of our value proposition. When last year a building of no less than 6000 sqm situated next to the plant in Erembodegem was put up for sale, we immediately saw this as an opportunity to further improve our logistics services –  one that we grabbed with both hands.
