Australian converter buys second Mark Andy P-Series press

Australian label converter Wedderburn has purchased a Mark Andy P7 flexo press – the largest of its type in the country – during this week’s PrintEx11 trade show in Sydney. The 10-color machine is Wedderburn’s second from Mark Andy’s Performance Series and eighth from the US-based press manufacturer overall. 

Wedderburn’s label division general manager Denis Slater said: ‘The P-Series has turned us around so we can be competitive against digital presses.’ 

Ian Guanaria, managing director of Aldus Engineering, Mark Andy’s Australian distributor, said the sale was the fifth of the Performance Series in the country. 

Mark Andy’s Performance Series line of presses is the USA’s Flexographic Technical Association’s Innovation Award winner for 2011.
