Austrian group Starlinger & Co. GmbH will be presenting a new web lamination concept in Düsseldorf this year. “This is a revolutionary step in continuous web lamination, making it a lot easier and more efficient while guaranteeing best lamination quality”, said Starlinger Sales Director Hermann Adrigan. Starlinger is known for its stacoTEC lamination lines, selling up to 30 lines per year to customers around the globe. The worldwide first presentation of the new lamination line will be at the Starlinger booth in hall 16, where visitors can see it in live operation. In addition, Starlinger’s latest developments in flexible woven packaging will be presented.
As well as the lamination technology launch in hall 16, the recycling arm of the group will have a stand in hall 9, where will launch a new development which allows the recycling of highly contaminated post-consumer and post-industrial plastic waste such as washed household waste, agricultural films or similar, as well as heavily printed material. The technology also features compounding capabilities for upgrading the final product. During the exhibition a recoSTAR universal 65 VAC will process highly printed PE film, demonstrating the excellent melt degassing and cleansing capacity needed for high-quality regranulate that can be used in different applications.
Starlinger viscotec will stage the world premiere of the new deCON reactor in hall 9. A viscoSTAR reactor will be set up in hall 16, where a video wall will also show the recently launched viscoSHEET PET sheet line. The new sheet line is said to be able to process up to 100% recycled PET, virgin PET, and PIR (post-industrial regrind) at guaranteed IV levels, meeting FDA/EFSA levels for food-grade applications.
In the days before and after the K Show, customers will also have the opportunity to visit the Starlinger Open House in Weissenbach, one hour by car from Vienna. From October 14 – 16 and 21 – 25, 2013 the entire machinery range featuring the newest developments in textile packaging production and plastics recycling equipment can be seen in operation in the showroom at the Starlinger factory premises.
Starlinger textile packaging and Starlinger viscotec will be in Hall 16, Stand B47, and Starlinger recycling technology will be in Hall 9, Stand D21.
