A B Graphic International (ABG), has launched ThermoLam, a next-generation thermal laminator designed to deliver faster production, greater agility and improved sustainability for flexible packaging manufacturers.
Developed to meet increasing demand for more efficient and environmentally responsible processes, ThermoLam operates with zero VOC (volatile organic compounds) emissions, providing a cleaner alternative to traditional lamination technologies. The system is fully food safe and compliant with industry regulations, making it suitable for applications where safety and hygiene are critical.
Engineered for performance, ThermoLam combines pre-heating, cooling, corona treatment and slitting within a single, compact platform. With maximum mechanical speeds of up to 120 metres per minute and no curing time required, the system enables faster production cycles, reduced waste and significantly quicker time to market. Its smaller footprint and front-loading roll access further enhance operator efficiency while optimising factory space.
Designed for flexibility, ThermoLam supports rapid job changeovers, making it ideal for shorter run lengths and evolving production demands. Advanced servo control technology from Beckhoff ensures precision and consistency throughout the lamination process, while inline cutting streamlines workflow and reduces handling.
Furthermore, the modular design enables seamless integration with ABG’s broader FlexPack range, including Galaxy pouch-making systems and PouchJet digital embellishment technology, supporting a connected and efficient production environment.
Matt Burton, global sales director at ABG, said: “ThermoLam represents a significant step forward in how converters approach lamination within flexible packaging. By combining performance, sustainability and ease of use in a compact, modular system, we are enabling customers to move faster, reduce waste and adapt to changing market demands. As part of our wider FlexPack strategy, ThermoLam plays a key role in delivering a fully connected production workflow.”
ABG will present ThermoLam at interpack 2026 in Düsseldorf (7-13 May), where it will be showcased as part of a complete FlexPack workflow alongside Galaxy Packtech .
