Clondalkin Flexible Packaging has invested in a new high speed flexo printing press at its facility in Orlando, Florida, US.
The Comexi 8 color press is designed to process multiple substrates and can print a wide range of products.
Additional features of the press include auto registration, automated ink control systems, reverse-side web printing, inspection for quality control, high capacity drying units and high speed.
Clondalkin Flexible Packaging Orlando marketing director Nick Gamb said: "This state of the art press technology will enhance both capacity and capability bringing our customers additional flexibility and increased efficiency.
"Customer buying behavior is strongly influenced by the look and feel of the packaging. Print is a simple yet very effective way to unify a brand and visually set products apart from the competition, therefore investing in high quality print is essential.
"The new press is environmentally sustainable and equipped with advanced technologies to reduce energy consumption and to decrease set-up and printing waste."
