NOVITÀ BOBST

Collettivamente, ci avvicinano sempre più a una produzione di imballaggi più automatizzata, connessa, digitalizzata e sostenibile”.

L’attenzione ai giovani

decarbonizzazione per le attività operative in modo da ridurre l’impronta di carbonio. Altre attività chiave in ambito ESG includono lo sviluppo, attualmente in corso, di supporti riciclabili, lo sviluppo di inchiostri a base acqua e la riduzione del consumo di elettricità delle nostre macchine del 10-20% entro fine 2030.

È chiaro, come ribadito da Jean Pascal Bobst, che la sostenibilità ha dei costi da sostenere e tutta la filiera ma anche gli stakeholder devono essere disponibili ma soprattutto disponibili ad accettare questi costi, altrimenti è inutile parlare di sostenibilità.

“In BOBST siamo fieri di avere una comprensione profonda delle esigenze dei nostri clienti, grazie a partnership consolidate”, conclude Jean-Pascal Bobst.

“Questi ultimi potenziamenti al nostro portafoglio risolvono tutti problematiche specifiche evidenziate dai clienti.

WHILE WE WAIT FOR LABELEXPO, HERE ARE THE LATEST NOVELTIES FOR THE LABELS SECTOR

The labels sector is a truly multi-technology environment with both conventional and digital solutions. BOBST proposes novelties for both – flexo and digital presses, enhancing user experience, ease-of-use, new automation features and faster quality inspection setup.

BOBST has expanded its portfolio of die-cutting solutions introducing a quick change rotary die-cutting, which provides a 50% time saving to change magnetic cylinders. In addition to the 370mm version, BOBST has introduced a 530mm High-Performance semi-rotary die-cutter with automatic plate-change. Both modules include the Digi-Gap feature for even faster job changeovers.

Meanwhile the Digital Master series will soon receive an enhancement package, which includes new features, such as novelties for BOBST Connect, third party integration and new Accucheck functionalities.

A totally re-designed BOBST Sphere user interface will come first to the Digital Master series and in-line flexo M6, and then gradual implementation to other platforms. It combines in one single point of control all flexo and digital processes to ensure BOBST’s most user-friendly HMI ever created.

ESG CRITERIA (ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE)

BOBST is deploying an active strategy on sustainability, one of the four key pillars of its vision. The company has joined the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), reflecting its commitment to urgent climate action.

BOBST has clearly formalized the company’s targets and is evaluating decarbonization options for its operational activities to reduce its carbon footprint.

Molto bello infine il momento dedicato ai giovani talenti BOBST, tanto che è stato creato un apposito composto da Mattia Maffei, Allegra Alessi, Marion Barnes e Florent Luscher che hanno raccontato il proprio percorso formativo e come, grazie alle loro competenze, riescono a dare valore aggiunto alle attività quotidiane in cui sono coinvolti. Si sente spesso parlare di giovani generazioni, qui ne abbiamo avuto un esempio concreto, con un percorso strutturato che porterà questi giovani manager a crescere all’interno dell’azienda e a ricoprire sempre più ruoli chiave.

Other key ESG-related activities include the ongoing development of recyclable substrates, the development of water-based inks, and the reduction of its machines’ electricity consumption by 10-20% by the end of 2030.

It is clear, as reiterated by Jean Pascal Bobst, that sustainability has costs to bear and the entire supply chain but also the stakeholders must be available but above all willing to accept these costs, otherwise

Attention to young people

it is useless to talk about sustainability. “At BOBST, we pride ourselves on having a deep understanding of what our customers need, thanks to very close partnerships”, concluded Jean-Pascal Bobst.

“These latest enhancements to our portfolio all resolve specific pain points that our customers have raised. And collectively, they take us closer to more automated, connected, digitalized and sustainable packaging production”.

Finally, the moment dedicated to the young BOBST talents was very nice, so much so that a special group was created which saw Mattia Maffei, Allegra Alessi, Marion Barnes and Florent Luscher talk about their training path and how, thanks to their skills, they manage to add value to the daily activities they are involved in. We often hear about the younger generations, but here we could hear about a structured path that will lead these young managers to grow increasingly within the company in key roles.
