Xiamen Hexing Packaging Co., Ltd (HXPP) has acquired China’s first HP PageWide digital press to meet the growing demand for customized corrugated packaging. The installation of the HP PageWide T400S press at HXPP's production site in Huayi, Hubei will help HXPP achieve large-scale production of corrugated printing products.

“HXPP insists on being customer-centric, striving to respond quickly to customer needs, continuing to create long-term value for customers that will ultimately benefit the packaging supply chain,” Mr. Xiao Kang Du, Vice-General Manager of United Creation Packaging Solutions, HXPP Group, said at an open house held for customers to introduce the new press at the site.

To this end, HXPP has been seeking innovation in business and service models based on market insights. Observing the youthful trend of the main consumer group, HXPP keenly captures the strong demand of brand owners for customized and differentiated marketing, and actively develops high-quality customized products for them.
