One of the most spoken-about topics in today's printing is automation, and Friday, June 18th, we had the chance to see automation at a level like never before. In the German city of Gallin, located about an hour's drive from Hamburg to the east, Schur Pack GmbH has built an entirely new, very efficient packaging printing company focusing on folding carton products.
Schur Pack was easy to recognize when we arrived in the industrial area with its white-painted high-bay warehouse and Schur branding. Despite being 5-6 years old, entering the building still appears as a brand new modern facility with a delicate choice of materials from floors, to doors, to pretty much everything. Though not precisely aware of what to expect, the expectations got higher!
We are welcomed by Production Manager Jan Bollweg and CEO Klaus Madsen. While we await the arrival of Group Commercial Director Jane Puggaard and Director Per Bækgaard from Schur's Danish headquarter, we get an excellent opportunity to understand more about what to expect.
Klaus Madsen and Jan Bollweg work at Schur Pack Germany GmbH. In the meeting room, we see many products produced at the plant, but we are not allowed to disclose the brands produced as it often is. But all well-known brands, and as an example, just one of the products is annually produced in 500,000,000 copies.
Per Bækgaard is the Director of Schur's Logistics and Palletizing products. We are filming from Germany as Schur Pack Germany is both a customer and a test site for the logistics solutions we will soon see.
