YAVNE, ISRAEL | Highcon is cooperating with Duran Machinery, Istanbul, Turkey, to perform digital cutting and creasing on folding carton packages that then pass to Duran’s Omega folder/gluers. Chris Baker, Highcon VP of sales and business development, says, “Once packages have been cut/creased on the Highcon Euclid, they need to continue smoothly to the folding/gluing station. Therefore we are delighted that one of the industry leaders has agreed to cooperate with us. We firmly believe the new Highcon Direct to Pack category will be an industry game-changer. Pinar Kucukaras, sales and marketing director at Duran Machinery, says “Duran Machinery has already demonstrated its commitment to packaging solutions. We have been impressed with the direction that the Highcon team is taking and are pleased to be able to cooperate on ensuring a seamless integration with our machines, which are installed in over 50 countries around the world.”
