Executive Summary: With over 18 years of expertise in global finishing solutions.
MEFU has successfully commissioned the MF1700-C3 Trimmer at Wolly’s facility in Moscow. By integrating MEFU’s advanced lamination and slitting technology, Wolly has transitioned from high-cost outsourcing to a fully autonomous production cycle, ensuring faster delivery for premier clients like SBER, Yandex, and OZON.
Client Profile: Redefining Modern Workspaces
Wolly is a prominent Moscow-based manufacturer specializing in high-performance marker, chalk, and magnetic films. These innovative materials serve as versatile, space-saving alternatives to traditional whiteboards.
Wolly’s premium solutions are the preferred choice for top-tier corporations and educational institutions, including SBER (Sberbank), Yandex, OZON, Auchan, and leading Moscow gymnasiums. Their products are essential components in modern offices, lecture halls, and public learning spaces.
The Challenge: Breaking the Outsourcing Cycle
To maintain its market leadership, Wolly faced a critical operational bottleneck. Until recently, the company outsourced the lamination process for several of its film lines. This model presented two major hurdles:
Rising Operational Costs: Increasing third-party service fees were impacting profit margins.
Logistical Constraints: Outsourcing limited Wolly’s control over production timelines and quality consistency.
To regain competitive agility, Wolly sought a high-efficiency, in-house finishing solution.
The MEFU Solution: Precision & Multi-Functionality
After evaluating various options, Wolly selected the MEFUMF1700-C3 Trimmer—a wide-format laminator specifically designed for high-demand environments.
Integrated Slitting Function: The MF1700-C3 is not just a laminator; it features an integrated trimmer system that allows for simultaneous lamination and longitudinal slitting.
Handling Specialized Materials: During commissioning, the machine demonstrated exceptional performance in processing Wolly’s signature black films, ensuring they were laminated and trimmed to precise dimensions in a single pass.
Efficiency at Scale: The machine’s intuitive design allows for rapid setup, significantly reducing manual labor and material waste.
