Faced with challenges from COVID-19 and new national labour laws, Hansung P&I of South Korea has acquired a new Nilpeter FB-Line to expand production capacity.

Hansung P&I, located in Dae Gu, is one of the largest total printing solutions providers in South Korea. For more than 5 decades, Hansung has provided printing solutions from gravure, offset, letterpress, and flexo across multiple industries.

The Perfect Choice
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and faced with new Korean labour laws limiting weekly working hours, Hansung faced a challenge to expand their production capacity in flexo and continue serving some of the world's leading logistics companies.

“These specific jobs require a complicated system integration and are unique in its kind. Nilpeter were able meet these requirements, and for that reason the Nilpeter FB-Line was a perfect choice for us,” explains Mr. Choi Youngchul, CEO of the Hansung Group.

Excited for the Future
“In addition, Nilpeter’s application team really came through” says Mr. Jung Won Joong, Managing Director of Hansung and its subsidiary company Dong Yang. “We are looking forward to expanding with similar Nilpeter presses in the near future, and we are excited as well about possibly adding a Nilpeter FA-Line in our FMCG division,” continues Mr. Joong.

The Hansung Group already has more than 50 printing presses and is on route to further expansions into new territories over the next few years. Nilpeter, as one of their new premium partners, will play a significant role within these expansion plans, claims Mr. Choi.
