Flexible and space saving

You can make elements with different sizes, shapes & thicknesses, simultaneously. You can process whatever materials your customers want.

In contrast to other pressing methods, the assembly and pressing of the panels are carried out on the same area, which saves half the space of other construction methods.

Low investment and operating cost, and scalable

Thanks to vacuum the material and running costs of a press can be minimised. Also, the production is very energy efficient, and any wear is negligible.

Vacuum press beds can be added to accommodate future growth, utilising the same gluing gantry.

Extraordinarily flat

The atmospheric pressure is only exerted on the panel and never on the press body, which therefore is not distorted and keeps its perfectly flat surface.
