African Excellence Awards 2022 24 The web printing sector is invariably essential for label and packaging industries. Regardless of location, printers benefit from sourcing local manufacturing of highprecision solid rotary dies and magnetic print cylinders, reputable printing and finishing machines and supporting systems, as well as other turnkey project services and accessories from a primarily customer-driven partner. This is where ROTOCON comes in. eadquartered in Cape Town – with branches in Johannesburg, Durban, and across Europe and Asia – ROTOCON provides tailor-made turnkey solutions for label printing and packaging printers. Its goal is to learn about its customers’ printing environment and recommend the ideal solution to meet their needs. In addition, it also provides the ECOLINE range of printing, converting, and finishing equipment – carefully balancing the highest possible specifications with competitive pricing. ROTOCON also represents 15 reputable brands across the entire spectrum of production technology. From prepress to printing, via digital and analogue technologies, to all ancillary and finishing systems, ROTOCON provides anything and everything customers in the narrow-web printing sector may need. Years of strict adherence to integrity, quality, and reliability. A personal commitment to the industry and its client base has made ROTOCON the preferred supplier of printing and converting equipment for South Africa and beyond. It continually reinforces these company values within its management style and overall culture flow as its Founder, Michael Aengenvoort, set them out. He still runs the business according to these defined values that the rest of the company, including his sons, Patrick and Pascal – and 55 fellow employees follow. It is from these values that the company’s successes and practices have blossomed. The local production of its solid rotary dies, print cylinders, and accessories take place in its Johannesburg branch. At each depot, ROTOCON delivery vehicles handle the logistics of transferring orders under its control from the airport directly to its customers. Its fleet even provides door-to-door service in delivering consumables, cutting tools, and spare parts whenever and wherever they’re needed. Besides its quality range of equipment and machinery, it has a vast network of spare parts and technicians available across the country, 24/7, to ensure that, should a problem arise, it has a team of professionals who can attend to it immediately. Its fully trained and highly knowledgeable technicians provide responsiveness and on-site service. Import restrictions, reduced transportation of goods, and opportunities for manufacturers to prove themselves to brand owners are the current African corporate landscape. The situation motivates food, beverage, and chemical companies to order locally produced labels. The food industry is expected to account for a significant market share as consumers are now more aware of the content of the food they consume. Labels play a key role in displaying information, and there is an increasing demand for embellished labels, sustainability, and automation. ROTOCON is well positioned to support and build the capacity of label printing and packaging companies to address these challenges in Africa by providing a large gamut of printing and packaging solutions. Its approach considers longevity and reliability, not only with machinery but also with people. It’s not only about selling a product but solidifying relationships with clients and the greater industry. ROTOCON offers competitively priced and robust ECOLINE printing presses, which enable local label printing companies to improve their quality, price competitiveness, service, and delivery times. It endeavours to establish a presence in local African territories to respond to customer queries relating to new products, maintenance, and service – as well as greater profitability to its clients. For example, in June 2022, it launched a full-scale commercial production of the ECOFLEX range of flexible dies from its Johannesburg-based manufacturing facility. This is to satisfy the needs of those who require international standard quality performance and a quick turnaround time, all in line with ROTOCON’s long-term ambitions. The rest of the year will see ROTOCON launching new top-of-the-line CHROME label printing and finishing machines with more converting options at a very attractive price level/capital outlay cost and quality level that rivals international market standards. ROTOCON provides impressive turnaround times, long-term profitability, and sustainability in the industry for itself and its clients. It leverages every element at its disposal with its values, ensuring that its endeavours meet with success for everyone involved. Having firmly established itself in such a narrow industry with an extensive range of products supported by an extraordinary level of service, ROTOCON earned the Best Printing & Converting Equipment Supplier award in South Africa for all of this and much more.
