Flexo Printer Through and Through

An early adopter of digital platemaking, Labelad bought its first Esko CDI platesetter in 2001. “We stopped using film to make plates later that year,” explains Norris. “It was day and night how much digital platemaking increased our quality of printing over analog platemaking.”

In 2005, Labelad upgraded to the larger and faster Esko CDI Spark 4835 digital imager and in 2011, it upgraded once again, to Esko’s HD Flexo technology, which uses special screening technology and a higher imaging resolution.
