Asahi’s broad AFPTM family of plates will be on display at the show, with experts available to explain their value in printing at the highest quality on a wide variety of substrates, from labels to flexible packaging and corrugate
Asahi Photoproducts, a pioneer in flexographic photopolymer plate development, today reported it will be represented in Mexico’s first label and packaging printing trade show from Labelexpo by its Mexican distributor, Representaciones Pfeifer. The event is scheduled for 26-28 April at Mexico City’s World Trade Center. Representaciones Pfeifer will be located in Hall I, Booth I8, at the event.
“We partnered with Asahi in 2021 because we knew about the quality and reliability of its products and the company,” said Gerardo Kahn Feldman Vice President of Business Development. “Although the company had a global reputation, its products were not available in Mexico at the time. It was a perfect opportunity to properly introduce the brand in Mexico. We are delighted to be representing Asahi Photoproducts and its AFPTM CleanPrint line of flexographic printing plates at this premier of Labelexpo in Mexico.”
Asahi AFPTM Flexographic Plates: The Details
Asahi’s AFPTM CleanPrint family of flexographic plates are ideal for printing on a wide range of substrates, from thin plates for printing of labels and flexible packaging to thick plates for printing on corrugate. Plates can be selected based on the requirements for the individual substrate and project, including out-of-the-box flat-top plates, kiss touch pressure to preserve corrugated fluting, very high quality printing with minimal dot gain and plates designed for printing with sticky inks. Representaciones Pfeiffer will be displaying the entire AFPTM family of plates. Visitors to the booth will also be able to learn about other offerings from Asahi Photoproducts, bringing flexographic printing more in balance with the environment. “Since we began representing Asahi Photoproducts in Mexico,” Feldman added, “our customers have experienced the high quality, stability, performance and range of solutions that were not available before in Mexico for flexographic printing, including both digital and analogue plates. They have also benefited from the ease of switching to these exceptional plates and the improvements they have seen in the press room. We will be sharing some of their stories with visitors to our stand during the show.”
