Seala installs Comexi SL2 laminator to increase production capacity

The partnership between the two businesses allow Seala to position itself in food markets as well as implement ecological designs.

Seala, a company specialising in the lamination of paper and cardboard with different films and aluminum, and Comexi have strengthened their commercial relationship with the acquisition by the former of a Comexi SL2 laminator. With this purchase, Seala has increased its production capacity, and is able to position itself in food markets, as well as produce ecological designs with the use of an innovative application.

Laurent Bisson, manager of Seala, commented: “The know-how of Comexi, in general, and the technical characteristics of this laminator in particular, are ideal in carrying out our work specifications. The customisation of the SL2 was decisive in the decision-making process. Several design modifications have been made and additional options have been added, allowing for it to be successful on a very large range of materials and weights.”

The purchase of the Comexi SL2 laminator increases Seala’s production capacity and expands its business segment. The bonding process, based on solvent-free polyurethane adhesive, will enable the company to laminate duplex or triplex plastics and paper structures. Owing to this operation, Seala can “position itself in food markers such as sandwich bar, take-out drinks, frozen foods as well as implement eco-designs, which will become increasingly more important in the coming years”, Bisson added.

The Comexi SL2 design, due to its use ability and controls, is designed for short- and medium-run laminator for a wide variety of materials, as well as being the solution for solventless lamination. The machine has been designed to comply with productivity concepts and simplicity of operation. The Comexi SL2 has an applicator head design, consisting of complete motorisation, the use of metering sleeves, the option of incorporating automatic change turrets, and possesses an intuitive environmental nuance.
