Swedish packaging specialist, Kartongbolaget, has enhanced its production capabilities with a Fujifilm Jet Press 750S, which the company invested in at drupa 2024.
Founded in 1944, Kartongbolaget has built a strong reputation for high quality packaging, working with a wide range of customers from brand owners to start-ups. With 48 employees, the company offers a full-service approach, covering everything from proofing to short-run, highly customised packaging with a focus on fast turnarounds and personalised solutions. The investment in the Jet Press 750S marks Kartongbolaget’s first collaboration with Fujifilm.
Visutech’s team of skilled Field Service Engineers installed Kartongbolaget’s new Jet Press 750S, ensuring a seamless start-up and strong local service. As Fujifilm’s distribution partner in the Nordics, Visutech combines technical expertise with long-standing experience in digital print across Scandinavia.
Joakim Johansson, CEO of Kartongbolaget comments: “We installed the Jet Press 750S in December 2024 and began production in January – the impact was immediately noticeable. Not only did it relieve pressure on our offset equipment for shorter runs, but it’s also been a game-changer in terms of speed and flexibility, especially when responding to urgent customer deadlines. It’s helped us consistently meet, and often exceed, client expectations. Our start-up customers benefit from cost-effective short runs with the flexibility to scale, while our more established brands value the fast turnaround and high quality work delivered on demand. It’s really strengthened our value proposition across the board.
“We were particularly impressed by the robust sheet transport system, overall machine stability and significantly improved uptime compared to our previous digital press. Uptime alone has been a major upgrade. The colour accuracy has also been exceptional – reproducing 90% of the Pantone range. That level of precision gives us the ability to offer accurate proofs before a full run, which ensures consistent, high quality results every time.
“As a business committed to sustainable practices, we also saw the Jet Press 750S as a strong asset to our environmental strategy as it supports our zero-waste ambitions and helps us deliver a clearer, more powerful message to our eco-conscious customers.”
Joakim concludes: “Our experience working with Fujifilm has been seamless from start to finish, from the initial sales conversations through to installation and ongoing support. When the technology performs this well, everything else tends to fall into place.
“We’re genuinely excited about the future it’s helping us build. Looking ahead, the Jet Press 750S will be central to our continued evolution. It allows for faster planning, greater flexibility and reinforces our position as a key packaging supplier in Scandinavia.”
Tommy Segelberg, Segment Manager, Fujifilm Digital Packaging & Inkjet EMEA adds: “We’re delighted to welcome Kartongbolaget as a valued new customer and it’s fantastic to see the Jet Press 750S already having such a positive impact. Their early success is a testament to the press’s ability to deliver on both performance and reliability, and we’re excited to support them as they continue to grow and innovate.”
Alexander Tormachen, Service Manager Nordics at Visutech, comments: “With more than 30 years of experience in the graphic industry, we know how crucial reliable service and local expertise are for our customers’ success. Our Field Service Engineers play a key role in ensuring smooth installations and long-term uptime, and we’re proud to see the Jet Press 750S now running at Kartongbolaget. Together with Fujifilm’s innovative technology, our strong Nordic service organisation provides Kartongbolaget with the support they need to continue delivering exceptional quality and value to their customers.”
