The Ellis Group is innovating its package printing using six Komori printing presses throughout its three locations. It is the first company in North America to purchase the technologically advanced Komori GLX press (seen in the Spotlight article), which puts them at a competitive advantage with its speed, waste reduction and defect-free printing, all of which is attractive to the end user CPGs they serve.
The company is the largest privately owned producer of folding cartons in the Canadian marketplace, serving segments including health and beauty, food and beverage and pharmaceuticals. The Toronto-based Ellis Group has won numerous awards for its CPG packaging innovations, including Paperboard Package of the Year and an Achievement in Innovation Award. Also, in November 2019, President Cathie Ellis won Printing Leader of the Year.
