Flint signs agreement with Shanghai printing college

Flint Group Flexographic Products and the Shanghai Publishing and Printing College have signed a general cooperation agreement. The purpose of the cooperation is to promote education, consulting, research, development, technology service and career guidance in the Chinese printing and packaging industry.

Founded in 1953, the Shanghai Publishing and Printing College was the first educational institution linked to the publishing and printing industry in China.

‘With a well-organized and highly competent team of teachers, the college has established the top-ranking training facilities and key laboratories of GAPP-National Engineering Research Center of Digital Printing and Modern Communication Science Center,’ explained Teng Vueming, executive vice president, Shanghai Publishing and Printing College. ‘The partnership with Flint Group is poised to become a win-win alliance.’

Both partners will support the Chinese flexographic industry by providing specific education to talented students and offering them possibilities for practical training in research and application. ‘The Chinese printing market is extremely vast and important, but flexography is still a minor part of this industry,’ said Mario Busshoff, president of Flint Group Flexographic Products. ‘Our cooperation will help to develop talent and to promote the flexographic industry in the short and long term.’

The signing ceremony finished with a visit to Shanghai Publishing and Printing College’s training center and printing museum.
