By optimising production through automated roll management, companies can achieve higher productivity, better print quality and lower operating costs: key success factors in the growing wallpaper market. For Vinylpex, a Polish manufacturer of vinyl wall coverings and upholstery materials, the introduction of a Flexa unwinding and rewinding system for jumbo rolls integrated with a Canon Colorado printer means a new beginning in the wall coverings production process.
This strategic investment increases the efficiency of the production line, improves workflow and supports the company’s growing business in high-quality digital wallpaper printing.
Sales and consultation for this project was handled by SoftPlast, Flexa distributor in Poland, which provided the best solution for Vinylpex production needs.
The Flexa unwinding and rewinding system works with jumbo rolls that weigh up to 400 kg and have a diameter of 600 mm and is fully compatible with Canon Colorado.
This inline solution optimises the entire printing process, ensuring a continuous and smooth workflow, reducing manual handling and stoppages still maintaining precision and consistency.
With the introduction of the Flexa unwinder and rewinder for jumbo rolls, Vinylpex has significantly increased its wallpaper production efficiency, starting a new era for the company. The company expressed great satisfaction with the new Flexa equipment, appreciating its reliability and ease of use.
‘With the Flexa solutions, we are entering a new phase in our production process, which allows to significantly optimise the costs associated with launching new products on the market, while maintaining high quality. This is an important step forward for Vinylpex, enabling us to efficiently manage orders regardless of production volumes, while maintaining the speed of execution expected by our customers. The close integration of the Flexa system with our Canon Colorado printer also optimises energy consumption, having a positive impact on the environment,’ said Agnieszka Bródka, Product Manager.
This latest installation at Vinylpex demonstrates the advantages of integrating advanced roll handling solutions with modern digital printing technology. This system enables uninterrupted printing, streamlining high-volume production with minimal operator intervention.
