Chicago, IL - Channeled Resources Group (CRG), a manufacturer of blank shipping labels, release liner, and the world’s largest supplier of value-priced laminated papers and films, announced today that the company has purchased a SAM North America Silicone Coater for its plant in Marathon City, Wisconsin.
The 70" wide silicone coater will be
capable of running at 1500 feet per minute (FPM). It will be focused on coating
paper release liners of 25 to 80 lbs - including SCK, glassine, clay coated and
polycoated papers. According to Cindy White, President and CEO, “Channeled
Resources purchased a new 65" silicone coater in 2019. With the increased
demand in the marketplace, that machine is closing in at capacity now. We need
to add additional equipment, with a few bells and whistles to improve efficiencies,
which will allow us to continue to grow our release liner business. Our
customers are growing and we are growing with them.”
Don Teich, Vice President Sales, for SAM
North America adds, “We’re thrilled to support Channeled Resources Group with
the addition of this new coater. Our high-tech silicone coater will provide
them with the expanded capacity that they need now and into the future.”
The silicone coater will be installed in
the second quarter of 2023.
