For Repro Poly Services, the Flexcel NX Wide system’s fine image reproduction, print contrast and high densities will enable the company to compete for business traditionally beyond the capabilities of flexo. In addition, with enhanced ink transfer capabilities and high resolution, flat-top dot structure, Flexcel NX enables print efficiencies that include faster start up times, reduced waste and longer plate life.

Rohit Shingala, director, Repro Poly Services, said: ‘We have always been a forward-looking company and have embraced new technology when it makes sense for our business. This investment is in response to the demands of flexo printers who are increasingly seeking press efficiency across a wider range of flexo print applications, without sacrificing quality.

‘As a longtime supplier of digitally-imaged flexo plates to the industry, when it was time to bolster our production capacity, we decided to go wider. We realized that Kodak Flexcel technology was best suited for the capacity and capabilities we require. The system ensures we are in a strong position to serve the demands of our customers and sets our business on the right foot to grow into the future.’

Repro Poly Services is the second firm to install a Flexcel NX system in Hyderabad and the 25th in India.
