ITR flexographic printing

Question: And what are the implications for the flexographic printing market if ITR technology with the new endless photopolymer sleeves takes hold in the way that you hope?

Mario Busshoff: For ITR users in flexographic printers, the development of the various nyloflex® ITR products is a definite advantage. From several discussions we got the feedback that it is extremely important for the acceptance of ITR technology to have at least the choice between two reputable suppliers. This means that the use of ITR sleeves becomes an option for companies which do not want to be dependent on a single supplier. Since the dimensions of nyloflex® ITR sleeves are based exactly on the conventional system, existing adapters can be still used. So users can choose alternative endless sleeves with specific print characteristics without having to invest in new peripherals.
