Komori America

The Eight O Five apartment building in Chicago bills itself as being “not just a box” but “architecture with a soul.”

The following is a sampling of just some of the new products that were featured at drupa 2016.

This 2016 Gold Ink Awards entry was submitted and entered into the Folding Cartons category by Classic Color of Broadview, Ill. The Sappi Holiday Gift Box was created to remind Sappi Fine Paper's customers how paper plays a magical role in creating unforgettable experiences, especially around the holidays. The piece was produced on an eight-color, 40˝ Komori Lithrone (GL840) sheetfed press equipped with fully inter-decked UV lamps. What makes this gift box stand out are the fun designs, vivid colors and cool effects using coatings and scented varnishes.

Komori and Kodak entered into a partnership to integrate Komori software with Kodak workflow for increased automation and productivity.

Kodak has confirmed the integration of Kodak PRINERGY Workflow with presses from Landa, Konica Minolta, Ricoh and Komori.

Acme Press d/b/a Calitho submitted this 2016 Gold Ink Awards entry titled “Hokuala,” into the Brochures, Sheetfed, category.

Held once every four years, drupa has historically been a bellwether of product development cycles.

Sussex, Wisconsin-based Color Ink began as a commercial printer more than three decades ago, but after seeing local companies turning to outside graphic design firms to develop their packaging, Color Ink decided it was time to enter the packaging market. The company has made a big splash, not only producing packaging, but producing the products to be packaged.

When Lightning Printing was provided the opportunity to acquire Wallace Carlson Printing, Ann and Brian Turbeville decided to rebrand.

Harry Vinson has joined the Komori America team as EVP with responsibilities for the company’s sales, marketing, service organizations.
