The Silverline team with the new press

Based in Gauteng South Africa, Silverline Print has installed an eight-colour FL3 flexo press from Edale to keep up with demands from its customers in the pharmaceutical, health and beauty, and food and beverage markets.

The 350mm-wide press, which can handle a wide range of substrates, features UV curing and an array of rail-mounted options, including a turnbar, inter-print lamination, cold foil and a delam/relam module.

Maryna Welthagen, co-owner, said, ‘As an existing Edale customer, we are delighted to once again work alongside Edale and Floors Coetzee, Edale’s South African distributor, who has a clear understanding of our requirements and our need for service and support, meaning that Edale were the best choice for Silverline to maintain our position as a leader in the supply of labels and tags.’

‘With the need to upgrade equipment to keep up with the trends, the technology within the Edale FL3 meant it was the right choice for our business,’ added co-owner Chris Welthagen.

Edale’s managing director James Boughton commented, ‘This order from Silverline marks the continued worldwide growth in sales of Edale equipment, especially within the South African market. We are delighted that Silverline have chosen the Edale FL3 and we are excited to work alongside them and offer support in the future.’
