Jones Healthcare Group, a packaging and medication dispensing provider, has invested in a Gallus Labelmaster 440 press from Heidelberg as part of a $30 million capital investment plan to increase capacity and its equipment portfolio.
The new press will help nutraceutical brands include significantly more product information, and will help brands meet expanded content requirements for natural health product labels in Canada. All new natural health products will be required to adhere to the new regulations by June 2025, while products currently sold in the marketplace must comply by January 2028.
Jones Healthcare has experience supporting clients in shifting labeling requirements, such as new regulations on labeling for over-the-counter drug products which happened in recent years. With the installation of the Labelmaster, the company’s folding carton packaging and pressure-sensitive label options continues to grow.
In addition to its in-line back print and double-sided printing capabilities for extended content and multi-ply labels, the press includes 10 UV flexo print stations, two rotary silk screen units, and cold foil capabilities to uphold health and wellness brand standards. The company also has a AVT 100% video inspection system for quality in its in-line finishing.
“We’re in an ideal position to support nutraceutical clients with their label needs, especially with new packaging regulations for this market coming down the pipe,” says Cameron Bramwell, vice president of customer strategy. “We have new capacity with another fully commissioned label press, and we already have in-depth experience helping brands comply while minimizing supply chain disruption. This adds up to getting the job done right and getting it done quickly.”
Additionally, the company has installed integrated Uhlmann blister and bottle packaging lines, a Bobst Novacut 106 ER die-cutter, Koenig & Bauer Rapida 106 folding carton press, and Aquaflex LX 2350 label press as part of its multi-year capital investment plan to support health and wellness clients with complex regulated packaging needs.
