Flexographic Printing - Narrow Web

In an industry that continues to be impacted by the rise of digital technologies, flexography is proof that conventional printing is far from being replaced.

On today's episode of POW!, we take a look at the latest award-winning collaboration between Multi-Color Corp. and Michael David Winery. This latest label for Michael David's 2018 Sixth Sense Syrah, earned Best in Show in the 2020 TLMI Label Awards.

Repacorp started manufacturing RFID labels and tags in the mid-2000s. Since that time, Repacorp has installed four presses from Mark Andy. The company has partnered with Mark Andy since Repacorp's inception because of its high-quality capital equipment.

The newest press, Evolution Series E3, is poised to fill a gap in the market for a servo powered machine that boasts ease of use and reduces operating costs, while the original Evolution Series flagship press is being rebranded to Evolution Series E5.

Over the summer, Label Tech installed an eight-color, 13˝ Mark Andy Evolution press with full UV curing. The device was chosen for its extensive production capability and was installed at Label Tech's 20,000-sq.-ft. facility near Dublin.

In the spirits segment, it's not just on-shelf appearance that makes for a successful label. In the 2020 Packaging Impressions Excellence Awards, Labeltronix earned a first place award for a mezcal label that stands out in both retail and bar and restaurant settings.

Celebrity backed brands are a growing trend in the spirits segment, but few have gained the recognition from the printing industry that Próspero Tequila has earned. The brand, which burst on the scene with the support of pop star Rita Ora, received multiple Packaging Impressions Excellence Awards for its label produced by McDowell Label.

For 34 years, the Packaging Impressions Excellence Awards have been showcasing some of the best examples of package printing from around the world. In this week's episode of POW!, we unveil which package earned the top prize of Best of Show in the 2020 competition.

Mark Andy’s recent orders coupled with widespread, ongoing converter activities paints a positive outlook going forward as the entire label and packaging industry has adapted to meet the unique challenges presented by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Cyngient, Imageworx, and MPS have joined forces to provide label and packaging converters with a comprehensive resource that covers several important elements of the workflow and supply chain.
