Update on Otto Künnecke's systems

Unique Finishing Equipment was appointed in July 2008 as the exclusive distributor in the UK and Eire for all Künnecke products.

Künnecke secure plastic card mailing systems are well known in the UK card industry. Less well known, currently, are the PIN mailing systems, passport and ID verification, sorting and packaging equipment and document and envelope inspection and sorting systems which are installed in secure plants worldwide.

A brief summary of the product range is set out below. Videos, brochures and further information are available on the Kuennecke section of the UFE website.
