The West Yorkshire manufacturer of inline and standalone finishing equipment for labels and flexible packaging acquired an additional building adjacent to its current site in September.

This expansion has more than doubled its production capacity and houses a new dedicated machine shop for the manufacture and storage of components.

Bar Graphic managing director Annemarie Rhodes said: “We are seeing tremendous demand for our technology, especially for our latest BGM Elite range of die-cutting inspection rewinders, and therefore needed to boost our manufacturing output.

“This new facility will allow us to increase manufacturing output by at least 60% in year one and, importantly, enables us to build bigger machines and expand on our digital finishing and flexo press ranges using the old machine shop as extra build capacity.”

She added: “To support the expansion and boost our productivity, we have also invested in a new high speed 22 tool, four axis CNC machining centre, meaning we now have five high speed CNC machining centres on site.

“The investment across the business is clearly significant and ensures we are able to maintain our hard-earned reputation for technology innovation and customer service excellence around the world.”
