TimBar adds pre-print capabilities

TimBar Packaging & Display’s (www.timbar.com) Oxford Division located in New Oxford, PA is now offering preprinting capabilities. Printing the liner before it is combined into corrugated board allows high quality flexographic printing to be achieved. It also reduces the risk of wash boarding or the crushing of flutes during printing.

“The ability to offer preprint enables us to better service our customers growing need for high graphic packaging and complements our litho-lamination capabilities”, says Jim Simpson, VP and general manager for TimBar Packaging & Display.

Preprinted liners are available in up to seven colors plus coating and are printed with water-based inks so they are environmentally friendly. In addition, they can be printed on all Oxford Division flute profiles including B, C and E flutes. TimBar Packaging & Display’s Oxford Division is certified to the SFI Fiber Sourcing Standard.
