Longest CorruCUT ever to RomaniaRossmann Group invests in Koenig & Bauer CorruCUT

  • Innovative technical functions
  • Enhanced software and hardware features 
  • High level of automation
  • Most cutting-edge and productive Rotary Die-cutter on the market

ROMCARTON S.A., a member of the French Rossmann Group, is investing in a CorruCUT from Koenig & Bauer. With seven printing units, it will be the longest CorruCUT made to date. The machine is scheduled for commissioning by summer of next year, when it will begin production in Popesti-Leordeni near the Romanian capital, Bucharest, at one of the largest and most modern box plants in Southeast Europe. “We have been following Koenig & Bauer’s advances in the field of corrugated board processing very closely over the past few years. And we were also able to visit the existing machine installations in Romania and Germany. The expectations of the new machine were clear – the highest possible product quality, short set-up times and a reliable partner at our side. We are proud to work with Koenig & Bauer to further develop the CorruCUT” says Guillaume Grandviennot, Technical Director for the corrugated board activities at ROSSMANN Romania.

The longest CorruCUT ever will begin production in summer 2022

Koenig & Bauer has a philosophy of focussing on the expectations that customers have of their machines. Michael Donnert, Senior Sales Manager at Koenig & Bauer Digital & Webfed: “We have been holding close discussions with ROMCARTON since 2019. The new functions and developments incorporated into the CorruCUT impressed ROMCARTON during a visit to experience our technology in action. We are pleased to welcome ROMCARTON S.A. as a new member in our family of users of the newest Rotary Die-cutter on the market.”

Other new solutions have simplified and perfected the interfaces to peripheral systems even further. At the same time, the CorruCUT is now more compact, while an active air management system has enabled production outputs to be increased by up to 20 % compared to existing solutions when printing coated sheets.
