BS Packaging Assured Growth and Satisfaction by Chosing Colines
Colines and BS Packaging have forged a strategic partnership , propelling the influential French group to invest in the cutting-edge ALLRollEX 1500mm extrusion line from the renowned Italian company . This state-of-the-art stretch film production line boasts a Nanolayer™ structure , among other features , ensuring the creation of high-quality film with minimal thickness . The collaboration is rooted in BS Packaging ’ s decision to invest a substantial 3.6 million euros between 2022 and 2023 , aiming to expand the operations of their subsidiary company BS Packaging Iberia through both the enhancement of the production site and the acquisition of a new extrusion line . Patrick Richard , Industrial Director of BSPI , highlights , “ We chose Colines , aware of the exceptionally high quality and flexibility offered by their extrusion lines . We are thoroughly satisfied with the seamless journey together . The line was supplied , installed , and initiated on schedule , in an atmosphere of complete collaboration . Today , it operates consistently , ensuring
optimal production volumes and product quality .” What prompted the decision to invest in a Nanolayer™ technology line ? “ We aspire to cultivate our market share , as we currently export over 80 % of our production . Given the plastic tax landscape , Nanolayer™ proves particularly advantageous , enabling the production of a substantial film despite a significant reduction in thickness . Furthermore , the latest generation resins open new avenues for recipes , fully harnessing the potential of the Nanolayer™ structure .” Key features of the Colines line that stood out ? “ Undoubtedly , the flexibility of the ALLRollEX is pivotal for us , given the diverse rolls size requirements in the market . The ALLSpeedy IV winder facilitates quick production changes , smoothly transitioning between automatic and manual rolls , even with different core diameters . Additionally , the remarkably low power consumption is a significant advantage , especially given current energy costs .” Regarding cost reduction , the impact of the Mastermind virtual production assistant ? “ Undeniably revolutionary , the Mastermind system empowers Colines extrusion lines to minimize various factors affecting production costs . Start-up and commissioning time are drastically reduced , without manual interventions , enabling a decreased workforce and requiring no specific prior knowledge . Beyond that , Mastermind significantly reduces waste compared to lines from other suppliers , delivering substantial annual economic savings .” Reflecting on the cooperation , how do you assess the entire process ? “ We are delighted on multiple fronts , from project management to the ‘ wet test ’ at Colines , and the installation work proceeded smoothly without disrupting other production lines . This success is attributed to the excellent collaboration between BS Packaging and Colines technicians , culminating in satisfying final tests and a swift line start-up .” As a company , what goals have you set ? “ In the last two years , our company has invested significantly to expand operations and achieve
an annual production increase of about 10 % and a subsequent rise in revenue . We expanded our structure by over 250 square meters , augmenting our existing 6000 square meters of production area and 400 square meters of offices . This expansion includes the addition of a Nanolayer™-equipped line to our production repertoire . These targeted investments underpin a long-term growth strategy for at least the next 15 years . Crucially , having reliable and serious suppliers , exemplified by Colines , is integral to our success .”
