XSYS, in collaboration with its North American distributor partner Anderson & Vreeland, is highlighting its latest innovations for flexoprint production at Labelexpo Americas.
“At Labelexpo, we are focusing our attention on just how our best-in-class solutions can allow converters to be brilliant, deliver for their customers and stay competitive through these challenging times,” said Dan Rosen, Sales Director National Accounts, North America.
The nyloflex Xpress Thermal Processing System will take centre stage on the booth to demonstrate how platemakers can achieve better and more consistent quality, faster production and easier handling of flexo plates. With plates ready in less than one hour, the system can help reduce press downtime to meet brand owners’ demands for faster time to market. There are also significant sustainability benefits with thermal plates; for instance, nyloflex Xpress cuts down dramatically on energy usage, reducing costs by as much as 94% compared to solvent processing.
XSYS is the only supplier to manufacture all its plates, imagers and processors as well as sleeves and adapters in-house, giving the company full control of the whole production process and the ability to deliver more coherent service and brands, which includes nyloflex solvent and nyloflex Xpress thermal plates and equipment, nyloprint letterpress plates and equipment, nylosolv washout solvent, rotec sleeves and adapters, ThermoFlexX TfxX imagers, ThermoFlexX Catena plate processing equipment and Woodpecker surface screening solutions.
Prior to the show, the North American team spoke about its commitment to the label and packaging industry and how the separation from Flint Group has sharpened its focus. “As XSYS, we are a stronger and more focused unit that can respond quickly to our customers and to any market changes,” said Managing Director for Plates, Eric Gibbs. “We can also guarantee that our plates and equipment will work seamlessly throughout your prepress process and in the pressroom, simply because we design, engineer and manufacture all our own plates, sleeves, adapters and platemaking equipment. That is a unique offering in the market, which our customers benefit from enormously.”
