Ka whakatuwheratia te whare hanga tuatahi o ePac i te Newlands Road Food Manufacturing Centre hou, 8km mai i te CBD o Melbourne, i waenganui o te rohe ahumahi tupu o Coburg. Ka arahina e te kaiwhakahaere matua o mua o te wehenga rōpū Ball & Doggett, a Jason Brown. Ko te turanga kiritaki o ePac i Ahitereiria e arotahi ana ki ngā pakihi hou i roto i ngā kai paramanawa, ngā mea reka, te kawhe, te kai waro, ngā mōkai me te maha atu. Te wāhi kai me te tāpiringa kai. E ai ki te kamupene kei te tuku a ePac Australian i ngā hua hou, utu-whai hua, penapena wā, kua whakaritea me te pumau hei tautoko i ngā pakihi iti me te rahi-rahi e titiro ana ki te whakanui ake i te mōhiotanga waitohu.
I mea atu a Brown, te kaiwhakahaere matua o te whare hou: "Ko tā mātou whakaaro matua he āwhina i ngā waitohu ā-rohe ki te kawe mai i ā rātou hua ki te mākete i roto i ngā takai ā-rohe e mau tonu ana te mahi, e wātea ana i ngā wā katoa e hiahiatia ana."
"Kei te piki haere te maha o ngā waitohu iti me te rahi-waenga e hiahia ana ki te hanga i ā rātou pakihi, pērā i ngā waitohu vegan, Keto rānei, ā, mā te ePac rātou e āhei ai ki te neke whakamua me ngā takai pumau e tutuki ai ā rātou hiahia, e āhei ai hoki rātou ki te whakataetae. He mea whakahihiri te whai wāhi atu ki tō rātou tipu."
I kī a Brown ka tīmata anō te wheketere ePac hou i te maha o ngā mahi e ahu mai ana i Haina i tēnei wā. "I roto i te wiki kotahi ki te rua, kāore he raruraru mekameka tuku mō ngā kiritaki ePac, ā, ka taea e rātou te whakautu ki ngā tono a te mākete i te tere atu i tō rātou e mahi nei i tēnei wā," tana kī.
Ka hangaia e te wheketere hou a ePac ngā pēke me ngā rōra ngāwari. Ka hangaia te wheketere i runga i te tauira kotahi me ērā atu pae o ePac huri noa i te ao, engari he rerekētanga ā-rohe. Ko te pokapū o te wāhi ko ngā mīhini tā matihiko flexo HP Indigo 25K e rua, ko ngā mīhini hou hei whakakapi i te 20000, e tā ana i te 31 mita ia meneti i roto i te aratau tae-whā. Ko te whakaotinga ka uru atu ki te whakakī kore-whakarewa, he kaihanga pēke kounga teitei me te whakauru takirere hei tango hau ina hiahiatia.
"Ka taea te hangarua katoa i te takai, ā, ka uru ki roto i te iti rawa 30% o ngā mea hangarua i muri i te kaihoko." Ko te tikanga o te tukanga ePac katoa he iti noa te para mai i te tīmatanga ki te mutunga," te kī a Brown. "Ko te tikanga o te tā i runga i te tono kāore he puranga taonga. Mā te kore e kawemai i ngā takai mai i Haina ka taea te whakaiti i ngā tukunga."
Ka tukuna hoki e te kamupene te ePacConnect, e tā ana i ngā waehere QR raraunga taurangi ki runga i te takai hei whakanui ake i te whai wāhitanga a te kiritaki, hei whakarei ake i te wheako waitohu, te aroturuki me te whai, me te pono.
E 20 ngā wāhi e mahi ana, ā, kei te hangaia i Melbourne i tēnei wā, e rima tau te pakeke o te ePac, ā, e mahi ana ki ngā mano tini o ngā kiritaki puta noa i te ao, ā, e $200 miriona te moni whiwhi ā-tau e puta mai ana. Nō nā tata nei te kamupene tākai nui a Amcor i tango hea ki te pakihi.
I runga i te hangarau tā mamati hou a HP Indigo, ka mahi te ePac ki ngā waitohu ā-rohe o ngā rahi katoa, me te arotahi nui ki ngā pakihi iti me te rahi-rahi e whakaputa ana i ngā kai mātotoru, ngā mea reka, te kawhe, ngā kai taiao me te kai rauropi, te kai mōkai me ngā tāpiringa kai.
E 5 ki te 15 ngā rā pakihi e tukuna ana mō te taenga mai o ngā hua, ā, e arotahi ana ki ngā ota iti ki waenga, kia taea ai e ngā waitohu te ota i te wā e hiahiatia ana, me te karo hoki i te utu nui o ngā taonga me te tawhito o ngā taonga.
I mea atu a Jack Knott, te Tumu Whakahaere Matua o ePac Flexible Packaging: "E harikoa ana mātou ki te whakawhānui ake i te pakihi o te ao e tipu haere ana a ePac ki Ahitereiria. Kei te arotahi mātou ki te kawe mai i te wheako ePac pai ki ō mātou kiritaki, me te āwhina i ngā pakihi iti me te rahi ki te tipu me te whakatutuki i te whānuitanga o ngā waitohu nui."
I mea atu a Brown: "Kua āwhina a ePac i ngā waitohu ā-rohe kia tipu hei kaituku nui i roto i te hapori, me te whakarato i ngā hua ahurei ki ngā waitohu e āhei ai rātou ki te haere wawe ki te mākete me te takai pai. He tāpiri pai ki a ePac Ahitereiria te whakatuwheratanga o tā mātou wheketere tuatahi i Newlands Road. He tohu whakahihiri tēnei, ā, he tino pai te urupare mai i te hapori."
I whakatūwherahia te pakihi ePac ki te US i ngā tau e rima kua pahure ake nei hei hoatu i te kaha ki ngā kamupene taonga kua tākaihia ki ngā kaihoko ā-rohe ki te whakataetae ki ngā waitohu nui me ngā tākai pai, ā, e kī ana e whakahoki ana i ngā painga ki ngā hapori e mahi ana rātou, ā, e whai wāhi ana ki te waihanga i tētahi ōhanga huringa pumau ake. Mai i te whakatuwheratanga o te kamupene i tana whare hanga tuatahi i te tau 2016, e kī ana a ePac kua mārama tana kaupapa – kia āwhina i ngā waitohu iti kia whiwhi i te mana o ngā waitohu nui me te tipu.
E ai ki te pūrongo, koinei te kamupene tuatahi i hangaia i runga i te hangarau tā matihiko hou a HP, arā, ko HP Indigo 20000. Mā te tūāpapa hangarau nei ka taea e ngā kamupene te tuku mahi tere, poto, me te wā waenga hoki, me te whakarite i ngā mea kia kore ai e nui te utu me te tawhito o ngā taonga.
Ko Print 21 te maheni whakahaere matua o Ahitereiria me Aotearoa mō ngā toi whakairoiro me te umanga tā. Mā te whakakotahi i ngā uara whakaputa teitei rawa atu, ka whakaatuhia e tēnei maheni ia rua marama te mea pai rawa atu mō te tā, te whakapaipai me te kounga pepa mō ngā toi whakairoiro.
E mihi ana mātou ki ngā kaitiaki tuku iho o te motu katoa o Ahitereiria me ō rātou hononga ki te whenua, ki te moana me te hapori. E mihi ana mātou ki ngā kaumātua o mua me o nāianei, ā, e tuku atu ana hoki i tēnei mihi ki ngā tāngata katoa o te whenua taketake me ngā tāngata o ngā Moutere o te Moana-a-Toi.
