Press release from the issuing company

Bremen, IN, USA – In order to support ambitious growth plans, Indiana Carton Company (ICC) has ordered and will soon get delivery of a new, 7-color 65 inch wide Heidelberg Intro flexo press for large-format folding carton production.

“We looked at every press on the market, and in the end chose a Heidelberg flexo machine based on their outstanding track record, testimonials from their customers, and the perfect print quality we saw delivered on other Heidelberg presses.  The Heidelberg team bent over backward to meet our technical needs, making the decision an easy one,” said Ken Petty, President and CEO of Indiana Carton.
