Tresu appoints Innova Flexo Products as agent for ancillary program in Spain and Portugal

Founded in 2013, Innova Flexo Products has become an established provider of products from suppliers supporting the flexographic markets in Iberia, France and Germany. Products include doctor blades, inks, In-Mount mounting tapes, Innovabak corrugated backing material, Inn Pack pre-press automation, sleeves, mounting machines and other consumables for flexo printers.

The addition of Tresu Ancillary products, including chamber doctor blades and ink supply systems, will complement Innova Flexo Product’s range, while introducing local sales and support to the Spanish and Portuguese markets.

Henrik Kristensen, vice president at Tresu Ancillary, said: ‘It is a great asset to have the experienced team at Innova Flexo Products representing us. There is no substitute for local knowledge, language support, and understanding of market conditions. The appointment is important for those reasons, and it also strengthens our commitment to the Spanish and Portuguese markets.’

Mario Busshoff, co-owner and president at Innova Flexo Products, said: ‘Advanced ancillary systems provide the solution for automatically controlling ink supply to the flexo press, and the impact they can have on performance can be dramatic.

‘Ancillary products like Tresu’s F10 iCon controlled ink supply system, MaxiPrint Concept ink supply and cleaning system, and chamber doctor blades can be installed on new presses or retrofitted to existing machines, making them more competitive and extending their service.’

Tresu chamber doctor blades, made from carbon fiber, ceramic material and aluminum, together with the company’s ink supply systems, are available for all flexo printing and coating applications, including labels, paperboard, flexible packaging, and specialist situations featuring web widths above six meters.
