Fujifilm Shows Packaging Trends at Prime Label Technology Summit

Fujifilm North America, Graphic Systems Division recently hosted a Prime Label Technology Summit at its Chicago Technology Center, showcasing innovative packaging technology trends to invited attendees.

Successful solutions were the focus at the two-day event, allowing experienced industry professionals hands-on demonstrations of the Graphium, a UV inkjet press for labels, packaging, and specialty print, along with learning more about the Flenex series, a new flexographic plate system.

Graphium is a high-speed modular digital UV inkjet press with the option to integrate flexo and finishing stations for hybrid production and conversion in a single pass, greatly expanding the opportunities that can be converted. It enables profitable printing of short-run jobs while boosting productivity and providing the ability to produce new print options previously unavailable through traditional flexo technologies. Graphium makes converting short to medium print jobs more profitable.

The FLENEX FW water-washable plate system also drew attention. It offers very good ink transfer, superior compatibility with UV, water-based, and solvent inks; wear resistance and the ability to consistently maintain good product quality even when printing long-run jobs.
