The company, founded in 1938, was originally active in the food industry and built a reputation in the import and export of biscuits and confectionery. The growing importance of packaging led to the company starting to print its own packaging in 1991, and soon after, the labels of its suppliers.
The company's strategy was redefined at the end of the 20th century. The decision to further expand the printing activities and make it the company's core business was quickly made. At the turn of the century, the import and export business in biscuits and confectionery was sold.
Today, the printing company for in-mould labels and flexible packaging has grown into an international player and guarantees excellent service.
View the timeline of the family business here, with some surprising twists. Entrepreneurship is in our blood!
The company, founded in 1938, traded locally in food products.
They had a store in the village where local residents could go.
Later, they added a number of "SRV vans" to reach residents directly at home.
In the 1970s, the company evolved into a successful import and export business for biscuits and confectionery.
The company remains within the family and is led by the Lavrijsen brothers, two of whom are the current owners.
For in-house use, an innovative label press was acquired. This was increasingly used for customers and suppliers, marking the beginning of a new direction. The focus shifted to printing labels and packaging, and the business in biscuits and confectionery was sold off.
Significant investments were made in new flexo printing machines along with the associated finishing machines.
The company has now grown into an important player in the field of in-mould labels and flexible packaging.
iPB Printing has a state-of-the-art machinery setup with various UV-HD Flexo printing machines, 6 rotary die-cutting machines for finishing in-mould labels, and a wide web finishing machine for cutting and rolling flexible packaging. The company continuously responds to market demands and strategically invests in additional machines.
The UV HD Flexo printing technique is an advanced form of flexographic printing, known for its high resolution and sharp details. This technique uses UV-sensitive inks that cure instantly under UV light, resulting in faster production times and a highly durable finish. The inks are suitable for various types of substrates, including films, paper types, and synthetic materials, making them perfect for printing packaging materials.
UV HD Flexo
With UV HD Flexo, we can deliver an exceptionally high print quality comparable to that of offset printing, but with the flexibility and cost efficiency of flexo printing. Whether it's complex designs, fine details, or rich colors, this technique provides a reliable solution for printing packaging that stands out and can withstand harsh conditions.
Rotary finishing
We print on rolls and finish the printed rolls on rotary die-cutting and cutting-rolling machines. For In Mould Labels, this has the significant advantage that the labels are individually die-cut, ensuring optimal separation and dimensional accuracy. Additionally, we do not need to use powder for separating the labels in a pack, keeping the machines at our customers' sites clean.
At iPB Printing, we are actively committed to sustainability, both at the product, environmental, and social levels. Our efforts focus on reducing waste, optimizing production processes, and creating a positive work environment for our employees.
Product development
We besteden veel aandacht aan het ontwikkelen van duurzame verpakkingsoplossingen. Zo zijn onze gelamineerde labels ideaal voor herbruikbare producten, zoals drinkbekers. Daarnaast zoeken we altijd naar ‘mono-materialen’ zodat het eindproduct inclusief verpakking samen te recycleren is. Met ons ‘recypeel’ concept gaan we nog een stapje verder en creëren we een verpakking die tijdens het recycleerproces verwerkt kan worden tot een zuiver materiaal dat opnieuw te gebruiken is voor foodpackaging.
Environmentally conscious production
To minimize waste, we focus on using as little material as possible during the production process. The leftover material is disposed of through clean channels so that it can be reused as pure raw material. This material is also shredded to reduce its volume, resulting in less transportation needed.
Additionally, we code all materials used in production. This coding prevents different materials from being mixed, allowing them to be collected separately and reused as new plastic.
For shipping, we make as much use as possible of EUR pallets instead of disposable variants. Non-EUR pallets from our suppliers are separated by size and resold for reuse whenever possible. Even in small matters like drinking coffee, we make sustainable choices: reusable cups are standard for us.
Energy-efficient technology
Our (new) production machines are designed to consume as little energy as possible. A concrete example of this is the switch to LED drying instead of traditional UV technology. This not only reduces our energy consumption but also contributes to a cleaner environment.
Social sustainability
Sustainability at iPB Printing goes beyond just the environment. We place great value on the sustainable employability of our employees. By creating a pleasant work environment with music and plenty of light, we ensure a pleasant atmosphere in production. Additionally, we invest in tools that make the work physically lighter, such as electrically powered pallet trucks and mechanical lifting supports.
With these initiatives, we strengthen our social footprint and ensure that our employees remain healthy and motivated.
