"Many large cardboard factories call on us to produce what does not fit into their industrial manufacturing processes,
The Kolbus Autobox machine seemed particularly interesting to us, because it allows small series' to be processed easily thanks to automatic adjustment.
Thanks to this type of machine (Autobox AB300 with MULTI-CUT MC300), we have the potential to make a wide variety of custom-made boxes. Moreover, all the boxes we produce are different and this is typically what our customers prefer to outsource.
Versatility is our strength”.

"The Kolbus AB300... has allowed us to achieve savings in labour and purchase of tooling"
Mexipack
“Our growth has been the product of understanding and responding to four of the main current packaging needs of the industry: sense of urgency, flexibility, order quantities and design focused on reducing costs that are the best option for products to be tailor packed.
Thanks to the Kolbus AB300, it has allowed us to achieve savings in labour and purchase of tooling for the manufacture of small orders, as well as special designs and low-volume boxes. Another favorable point of the machine is that we can add many style codes thanks to its computer setup time, which allows the operator to load an order in 2 to 5 minutes.
Having the AB300 has also allowed us to serve customers with various box sizes, as well as low manufacturing volumes and shorter delivery times, which allows us to offer better service, which is a real added value for Mexipack.”

I am amazed with the quality of boxes our new AUTOBOX makes
Macfarlane Group
I have worked in sheet plants for over 30 years and bought a lot of machines. I am amazed with the quality of boxes our new AUTOBOX makes. The registration is excellent especially when producing jumbo boxes with high board grades. We also think the flexo print is extremely good quality.
“The KOLBUS Autobox Boxmaker makes high value, notoriously difficult jobs, much easier and faster to run. Since installation, we have run a huge range of products through the machine, it hit the ground running."
Westbury Packaging
Westbury Packaging’s Alan Jane said: “Purchasing the Kolbus Autobox has enabled us to move several processes in to one, saving hours of set time each day and hundreds of pounds worth of tooling. The Kolbus Autobox Boxmaker makes high value, notoriously difficult jobs, much easier and faster to run. Since installation, we have run a huge range of products through the machine, it hit the ground running. We are getting even more out of it than we thought we would. The print unit in particular has been extremely useful for us, we feel as though it has always been there!”

WER Packing Supplies
“I just wanted to say the AutoBox we purchased from you has proved to be a great investment.
Within the WER Group, small run work was an area we had naturally moved away from due to investments over the years on higher output machines.
Small run work was the foundation of our business 50 years ago and I felt in recent years it was an area that as a Group we had neglected.
As you know on this side of the business at WER Packing Supplies, we did not manufacture, but due to the Autobox’s simplicity, we had staff trained and operating within the first day.
We now stock hold sheets of board in various grades and can turn around small volume work in 24 hours which has proved very useful to a number of our customers.
Over the last 35 years I have been heavily involved with most aspects of our manufacturing and I can honestly say the Autobox is probably, for what it does, the best machine I have ever worked with for its ease of setting, low maintenance, and reliability.”

White Rose Packaging
White Rose Packaging specialise in “short-medium run (1-10,000) box manufacturing with an emphasis on quick turn - around, Just in time delivery”.
Production Manager, David McNally has been key to the growth of the business and acknowledges the large part that BCS-Autobox machines have played in their success. “We purchased our first BCS-Autobox machine some 20+ years ago and have now added our 4th machine with in-line 2 colour print. This is testimony to the robust construction, reliability and excellent after sales service that BCS-Autobox continue to provide”.
He continues, “The machines work day in, day out, they never let us down and cost very little to maintain”.
White Rose Packaging first started with a 2-pass box maker to cater for short runs of bespoke boxes. From there, they developed in to a very successful sheet plant that maintains excellent margins. Investment in the newer BCS-Autobox, modular line means that White Rose have improved production efficiencies by an average of 50%. In some circumstances, producing corner cut designs, we have saved up to 8 passes of operation in to 1”.
