LUXEMBOURG—04/16/08—Flint Group, a young and exciting company, dedicated to serving the printing and packaging industry, is preparing for its debut at drupa. “Having been brought together from four major well respected businesses, each leading companies in their own right, and having leveraged our strengths and capabilities, we now as Flint Group have more to offer than ever before” says Charles Knott, Chief Executive Officer Flint Group.
Around the theme “Always imPRESSive!” Flint Group is presenting their product offerings on its two stands: The Printing Inks Divisions as well as the Flint Group Flexographic Products, Flint Group Narrow Web and Flint Group Pigments Divisions will showcase their broad portfolio and innovative service solutions at stand C38 in Hall 5. Day International and Flint Group Flexographic Products are demonstrating their commitment to the printing and packaging industry with high-performance products and services at stand A21 in Hall 16.
An overview of the innovations:
Printing plates and sleeve systems
The main focus is on the new ready-to-image photopolymer sleeves nyloflex® ITR Thin and nyloflex® ITR Classic. nyloflex® ITR sleeves are seamless printing forms inclusive LAMS layer ready for digital imaging, especially developed for high-quality flexographic printing, which were launched onto the market in April 2008. Easy operation, faster make-ready, improved press speed and last but not least cost savings for customers are the advantages of this new generation of product. Furthermore, a new nyloflex® plate especially developed for UV printing will have its debut at drupa.
As another highlight the nyloflex® infinity technology for manufacturing endless printing forms is presented. This technology allows printers to improve print quality whilst saving on plate mounting time, press make-ready time as well as gaining from improved press speed. drupa visitors to Stand 5 C38 can watch live demonstrations of the three-step process for creating a seamless photopolymer sleeve twice each day.
Printing inks
The new Novavit® F 950 PLUS BIO and Novavit® F 550 PLUS ranges for sheetfed offset printing will be introduced. These inks have been developed for fast running printing presses and are ideal for shiny coated paper and cardboard. Novavit® F 550 PLUS is especially suitable for straight printing mode; the most recent binding agent technologies facilitate an even better ink/water performance. Novavit® F 950 BIO PLUS has been designed for use in very fast running multicolour printing presses for face and reverse printing modes. Both series demonstrate clearly improved misting properties at high printing speeds.
