Mansfield-based sustainable packaging specialist, Reflex, has signed for a Landa W10 Nanographic printing press at drupa.
Will Parker, Reflex, commented, ‘We were the first business to sign an LOI for a Landa press in 2012 for its W5, and four years on, I was here first thing on day one of drupa to become a paid-up customer for the W10. Why? Because the disruptive nature of Landa technology perfectly mirrors our business strategy. But also, it answers many of the issues that our customers are looking to solve. Today, digital packaging conversion becomes truly industrial.’
The press offers a time-efficient and cost-effective printing solution for flexible packaging. It provides the ability to print mainstream flexible packaging applications on any standard plastic substrate at 200 m/min using digital technology that requires no set up. A crossover point with analogue up to 10,000 linear meters let printers and converters offer affordable digital production while providing fast turnaround and on-demand printing.
‘Sustainability was another reason why the press resonates so well with our business. Four years on, for all those that told me that Landa would never get there, they must be eating their words today. Quite clearly, the technology is not only here, but it’s here bigger and better, faster and stronger than anyone ever anticipated,’ he concluded.
