Flexo4all Tour at Drupa 2008 to expose new flexo technologies

While Drupa 2008 expects  to host more than 2,000 exhibitors and over 400,000 visitors in Dsseldorf, between May 29th and June 11th, spread over 19 halls, Flex4all has plans to alleviate the diffculty of navigating such a large show.

Flexo4all, a strategic alliance between nineteen flexo suppliers, born to promote the advantages of flexography in the packaging printing industry, has prepared a guided tour to accompany people to the Flexo4all partners’ stands to help visitors find the most relevant booths for their business.

‘Flexo has a lot to say in the flexible packaging industry, especially thanks to the developments of food compliant UV/EB ink and drying technologies’, said Federico d'Annunzio, president of Gidue, one of the Flexo4all partners. ‘The traditional ink stability of UV technology will be enhanced by the advantages of UV flexo as a clean and environmental friendly process. This Flexo Tour is a real good chance for all Flexo4all partners to combine their experience and knowledge to show visitors how flexography can improve their business and support sustainable activity.’

The Flexo4all Paths inside Drupa aim at informing and demonstrating workflow solutions suited to a wide range of packaging applications: flexo printing onto any substrate type - thin extensible films, aluminum, paper, thin carton or thick corrugated boards - with different ink types, etc.
