Aquaflex Press Sales Strong in 2006

While company officials declined to reveal specific sales data, they report that production lines have been booked for months in advance, and that capacity in the 200,000-square-foot manufacturing plant is full.

Aquaflex was acquired by F. L. Smithe in 2004. Immediately the company began to make sweeping improvements to the product line incorporating their extensive experience in servo-driven machinery. At Labelexpo that year, it introduced a new concept press prototype of the FPC Servo. This new press design featured a robust inline print head and advanced sleeve technology. Soon after Labelexpo sales began to grow and the brand started its climb back to a leadership position in the package printing industry.
