V-Shapes to debut with AlphaFlex at PackExpo

V-Shapes, the world’s most innovative supplier of convenient, hygienic, and sustainable single-dose packaging equipment, will make its debut at PackExpo by showing its latest innovation, the unique AlphaFlex print, form, fill and seal solution. This compact, professional-grade dosing and delivery system will feature high-quality synchronized printing on both sides of the sachets, powered by Memjet’s DuraFlex technology and ColorGate Packaging Production server when it becomes commercially available later this year. 

V-Shapes AlphaFlex will be shown for the first time

The AlphaFlex dosing and delivery technology makes it possible to vertically integrate high volume production of the patented V-Shapes single-dose sachets. Eliminating the need to outsource printing and giving complete manufacturing control back to the brand owners and co-packers. PackExpo, scheduled for 27 to 29 September in Las Vegas, marks AlphaFlex as being shown in North America for the first time. V-Shapes will be located in the Central Hall, booth C-4703, at the show. Memjet representatives will also be available at the V-Shapes booth.

“We are excited to be able to show our new AlphaFlex dosing and delivery solution to the many attendees expected at PackExpo Las Vegas 2021,” said Charanjit Hayre – President / CEO of the company, North America. “This revolutionary filling/converting machine was made possible through a variety of important partnerships, including Memjet, Siemens, and SIHL, as well as the talented company’s engineering team. It was no small challenge to develop synchronized feeds and professional quality printing of our patented single-dose sachets, and we think the visitors to PackExpo will be amazed when they see what our partners and we have accomplished!”

AlphaFlex features integrated inline printing into the V-Shapes six-lane Alpha machine, enabling packaging converters/fillers to accomplish the complete manufacturing process of V-Shapes’ unique single-dose sachets under one roof with a compact footprint, full-color branding capabilities, in line, on-demand, and with the industry’s highest quality. In the AlphaFlex configuration, the printing module prints a single side of the single-dose sachets inline, synchronized with each other, and precisely married for diecutting, filling and sealing.

 

Packaging South Asia — resilient, growing and impactful — daily, monthly — always responsive

The multi-channel B2B in print and digital 17-year-old platform matches the industry’s growth trajectory. The Indian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Middle East packaging industries are looking beyond the resilience of the past three years. They are resuming capacity expansion and diversification, with high technology and automation in new plants and projects.

As we present our 2024 publishing plan, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2024 will exceed 6%. The packaging industry growth will match the GDP growth in volume terms and surpass it by at least 3% in terms of nominal growth allowing for price inflation in energy, raw materials, consumables, and capital equipment.

The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 45% over the past four years. With orders in place, we expect another 20% capacity addition in 2024 and 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels are grown similarly. As the consumption story returns over the next six months, we expect demand to return and exceed the growth trajectory of previous years. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – and as shown by our analytics, our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.

For responsible and sustainable packaging, with its attendant regulations and compliances, there is significant headroom to grow in India and the region. Our coverage includes the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and to waste collection, sorting, and recycling.

We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers. This is a large and complex canvas – the only thing that can work is your agile thinking and innovation together with our continuous learning and persistence.

The coming year looks to be an up year in this region, and this is the right time to plan your participation and marketing communication – in our rich and highly targeted business platform with human resources on the ground. Share your thoughts and plans and to inspire and mobilize our editorial and advertising teams!
