Battlefield Press boosts postpress production with second Koenig & Bauer die cutter

As Jerry Theoret, president and CEO of Battlefield Press, continues to rapidly scale up his business, his need for additional high-volume equipment continues. The Burlington (Ont.) firm, headquartered in a 45,000-sf facility, recently acquired the assets of Clearpak, a manufacturer of clear plastic retail folding cartons, boxes, tubes, shelf flags and displays for Canada, United States, Mexico.

This acquisition moved Battlefield into clear rigid carton manufacturing and necessitated the need for an additional die cutter. To boost its postpress production, Battlefield purchased a second Koenig & Bauer die cutter—an Ipress 106 K PRO.

“We are one of North America’s most experienced and technologically advanced full-service offset printers,” says Theoret. “Our jobs go right from the press to the finishing room for die-cutting and gluing, ensuring quality, speed and compliance. Ever since we bought our first Koenig & Bauer die cutter, our volume has doubled.”
