Reflex Labels purchase their 25th Bar Graphic Machine

Reflex Labels is celebrating the success of Bar Graphic Machinery’s 25th anniversary year by celebrating the10th year of a harmonious working relationship between the two companies.

2017 sees Reflex Labels purchase their 25th machine from BGM, after purchasing their first machine ten years ago in 2007. Since the first, Reflex knew they could rely on the machines to offer specific solutions necessary to their operations.

Ian Kendall, Managing Director of Reflex said; “From the first installation to the most recent one, the reliability of the BGM machines has been exceptional.”

“The service, backup and technical knowledge has also enabled BGM to shine through as a leader supplier to Reflex.”

The two businesses continue their strong partnership with Daniel Carr, Sales Manager at BGM, stating; “Reflex have shown strong commitment to BGM and we are proud to be a part of their continuous growth and expansion plans. The latest equipment installed by BGM caters for larger unwinds but also enables more complex substrates, meaning Reflex can become more specialised.”

Reflex have recently introduced five 450mm-wide 450 Ecoflex full servo multiple substrate inspection slitter rewinders, for unsupported and supported substrates from 11 micron upwards. Fitted with BGM’s intelligent tension control system, the machines are fitted with a 1-metre capacity unwind system with their latest innovative mandrel inflation system.

Ian Kendall commented that; “the BGM Elite inspection slitter rewinders have proven to be outstanding, especially in achieving very high speeds with very difficult substrates.”

Mansfield-headquartered Reflex Labels saw revenues surge in the 12 months to February 2017, and with the addition of another BGM machine the company is expecting further growth in sales this year.
