z Vivar Printing invests in packaging printing
Vivar Printing Sdn Bhd ( Vivar ) was founded in 1985 . For the first one-and-a-half decades of its existence , the company ’ s main specialty was book production . In 2010 , Vivar recognized the opportunities offered by the rapidly growing packaging market . It initially invested in the flexible packaging segment and then moved into folding carton production , which involved creating an official packaging division and investing in a Speedmaster CX 75-5 + L from Heidelberg .
This five-color sheetfed offset press with coating unit provided Vivar with a robustly built printing system based on a design principle that was equally suited to commercial products and high-quality packaging . “ Key features of the Speedmaster CX 75-5 + L include quick and easy job changes , outstanding print results , and high net outputs ,” says Kok Wai , Managing Director of Vivar , who describes this press as exactly right for the needs of his company .
Barely a month after the Speedmaster CX 75 started operating , Vivar made its next big investment and ordered a Speedmaster CD 102-5 + L from Heidelberg . The contract for the five-color press in the 70 x 100 sheet format with coating unit , which was manufactured in Shanghai , was signed in November 2020 , and it started operating in March 2021 .
