Laminate Technology

Innovation at the Heart of Ilpra

At Ilpra, technology is more than just machinery.

It is the foundation of our commitment to delivering packaging solutions that combine quality, efficiency, and creativity. With advanced equipment and a dedicated team, we ensure that every product meets the highest standards of performance, safety, and sustainability.

Rotogravure

Our rotogravure presses deliver exceptional image clarity and colour depth. With multi-colour capabilities and integrated quality control systems, we guarantee consistent results that bring packaging designs to life while maintaining efficiency at every stage.

Flexography

Ilpra’s flexographic presses are designed for speed, flexibility, and sustainability. Their modern design reduces setup times and energy use, helping us produce high-quality results while minimising waste and environmental impact.

Lamination

Versatility is the strength of our lamination lines. Whether solvent-based or solvent-free, our systems work with a wide range of materials — from plastic to paper and aluminum — ensuring reliable adhesion, superior performance, and safe packaging for food applications.

Laser & Inkjet Systems

We use laser perforation to create easy-open features and micro-perforations for specific product needs, such as controlled airflow. In-line inkjet printing also allows us to add high-speed variable data and traceability codes directly onto packaging, ensuring safety and compliance.

Research & Development

Our R&D and quality control laboratories ensure that every material and finished product meets strict standards. From food safety testing to sustainability research, we are constantly innovating to improve packaging performance and protect both consumers and the environment.

Graphics & Color Management

Great packaging starts with great design. Our in-house graphics and colour departments transform creative ideas into production-ready artwork. Using advanced software and precise colour-matching systems, we guarantee consistency and high impact on the shelf.

Cylinder Engraving & Storage

To ensure precision and flexibility, Ilpra engraves its own cylinders using advanced digital technology. Our modern storage facilities keep thousands of cylinders ready for use, enabling us to respond quickly to customer demands and maintain consistent quality across production runs.

Technology for Today’s Market

By combining innovation, advanced equipment, and deep expertise, Ilpra creates packaging solutions that not only protect and preserve products but also strengthen brand identity and meet the demands of modern consumers.

Reject system options for metal detection and checkweighing 

Detection flags the issue; the reject system removes it. The right choice depends on product, pack format and line speed.

Regulatory compliance and quality assurance in inline inspection

Inline metal detection and checkweighing are central to food safety and quality assurance, but equipment alone does not ensure retailer or regulatory compliance.

Key considerations when upgrading packaging equipment 

Upgrading packaging equipment is rarely a like-for-like swap. A new machine must fit the product, pack format, line pace and daily operation.

Better packaging begins where you don’t look

When packaging underperforms, the cause is often hidden beneath the surface, in the material rather than the machine.
