In the last years, COMERIO ERCOLE developed an important cooperation  with the famous German manufacturer KAMPF, world leader in the field of wind-up plants and re-winding cutting machines  for plastic sheets,  shaping a joint society 50-50 that is CKA GmbH.

Within a strategic process having the purpose to make CKA GmbH more and more a pole of technological competences in the calendering and finishing  of  PVC-PU-PP plastic sheets, an agreement has been recently reached with  ISOTEX-GRUPPO COLOMBO who,  starting from March 1, 2009, became partner of CKA GmbH with a joint quota like that one of Comerio Ercole.

ISOTEX-GRUPPO COLOMBO, founded in  1957 and located in  Sandrigo, in the Veneto region,  is one of  the European Companies leader in the production of  coating and laminating machinery and plants applied for a wide range of industrial applications.

Therefore, besides the calendering and mixing technologies for the process of plastic materials in films, sheets and plates, now CKA GmbH takes advantage also of the coupling, rotary printing, inspection, rewinding and embossing/laminating technologies

The headquarters of CKA GmbH remain in Germany, but the pulsating heart is in Italy where it is available  the highest technical and technological level  guaranteed also by a long manufacturing tradition and experience consolidated in the years.

Thus, during PLAST'09, the visitors have the opportunity to meet, in one only big booth but with two independent meeting points, both COMERIO ERCOLE (presenting her range of rubber processing machinery and particularly the new recycling technology line) as well as ISOTEX and also CKA in a shared common area (as far as the calendering and finishing  technology of produced sheets is concerned).

Particularly, CKA will present the latest innovations in the field of calendering and laminating process of sheets for composite materials.
