At PrintPack India 2017, Valco Melton India, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valco Cincinnati Inc, will display its D4 gear pump system, NC4 piston pump hot melt system, Valco Melton range of cold glue systems for folding carton application, corrugated application, web press applications and GMS microgluer for paper folders application. Visitors to the stand will also see the entire range of hot melt and cold glue spare parts from the company. Valco Melton, a leading supplier of adhesive dispensing equipment and quality assurance systems to the converting industries, last year acquired Italy-based Ero. The move was made as part of Valco Melton’s strategy to expand its scope of offerings to customers in the paper converting industries, including corrugated, folding carton and bag manufacturing. Ero will also be showcasing its folding carton and corrugated solutions at PrintPack at a separate stand. “Valco Melton and Ero will showcase their products at separate stands because the decision to participate in PrintPack was taken before Ero was acquired by Valco Melton,” says Ravi Kiran, director, Valco Melton India.
Ero has been servicing the needs of the converting industries since 1994. Located in Brescia, Italy, the company specializes in the production of electronic gluer systems for compact and corrugated cardboard boxes, paper bags, wood, sacks and other special gluing applications, as well as glue detection systems for folder-gluers and case makers.
Valco Melton has been present in India since 2010, during which it has developed a significant customer base in both hot melt and cold glue application systems in India and emerging Asian markets.
