Anca Plast and Uteco: A Partnership Growing Stronger for Over Ten Years
For more than fifty years, Anca Plast has been a benchmark in the flexible packaging sector in Argentina. Led by the Cavallotti family with Antonio, the company’s founder, now joined by his son Esteban, Commercial Manager, and Martín, Industrial Manager, the company continues to invest in cutting-edge technology to ensure quality, efficiency, and tailored solutions for customers across the country.
Uteco looks with great satisfaction at Anca Plast’s growth path, which for over a decade has chosen the flexo Onyx series technologies to face increasingly complex production and market challenges. The first Onyx machine installed, still fully operational today and performing just as it did on the very first day, is tangible proof of the reliability and robustness of Uteco’s solutions.
Over the years, this trust has turned into continuous investment: Anca Plast currently operates two flexo Onyx 808 machines, to which a new flexo OnyxGO will soon be added, with start-up scheduled within the next 30 days. This strategic choice stems from the need for a machine that is simple to use, features extremely fast job changeovers, advanced electronics, ink-saving capabilities, and a strong focus on energy efficiency.
In an economic context as challenging as Argentina’s, marked by reduced consumption, smaller orders, and increased caution among brands, Anca Plast has decided to focus on technologies that maximize production flexibility and minimize waste. The OnyxGO perfectly meets these needs: reduced set-up times, lower material consumption, decreased use of plastic films, and a strong ability to handle small and diversified batches.
This strategy enables Anca Plast to continue growing without losing customers, offering the same level of attention to both small businesses and large multinational companies.
For Uteco, supporting this company on its evolutionary path means reaffirming the value of a partnership built on trust, quality, and a shared vision: delivering cutting-edge solutions for more efficient, sustainable, and competitive packaging.
