Global pulp, paper, and packaging leader OJI Group has further strengthened its manufacturing capabilities in Southeast Asia with the successful installation and commissioning of the advanced Aopack Box Maker BM3000-HD at its OJI Thailand facility. This strategic investment underscores OJI’s commitment to cutting-edge technology and operational excellence within its corrugated packaging operations.
As the world’s third-largest forest, paper, and packaging company (2012 ranking) and a constituent of Japan’s prestigious Nikkei 225 index, OJI Holdings Corporation continually seeks technologies that enhance productivity, flexibility, and product quality. Following successful deployments across multiple subsidiaries in Japan, OJI Thailand became the latest operation to integrate the renowned Aopack BM3000-HD into its production line.
Generated significant excitement within the OJI Thailand plant. Upon the arrival of Aopack service engineer Jason, the entire production team gathered around the newly delivered BM3000-HD, eager to witness the capabilities of this highly-regarded machine within the Thai packaging industry. The palpable enthusiasm fueled Jason’s dedication, leading to a remarkably swift installation completed within a single morning, facilitated by helpful plant workers.
The significance of the occasion was marked by the presence of the OJI Thailand factory owner and his daughter, who personally oversaw the entire installation and training process. Demonstrating deep commitment, the owner himself performed the inaugural startup of the BM3000-HD in Thailand – a powerful symbol of confidence in the new technology.
