Application: Flexible Packaging

Flexible packaging is one of the most active and fastest growing segments in printing and converting. Martin has been providing high performance unwinds, rewinds and tension controls to this industry for many years, from very narrow to very wide processes; from ultra-thin unsupported foils to extensible films and laminates. Please contact us to discuss your specific needs. We invite you to put our resources to work for you.
