Packaging and label business owners, production specialists and prepress managers are being invited to discover how a focus on innovation and sustainability can help drive their profitability at a special event in Dubai next month.
On October 9, Esko and Dubai-based iTM (Industrial Tools & Media) will be joined by partners from Comexi, Asahi and MacDermid for the special “Esko on Tour – Dubai” event held at the city’s Novotel World Trade Centre. Offering unique insights, including learnings from this year’s drupa event, attendees will discover how the latest advances in automation, flexo plate technology and prepress processes can help them achieve their sustainability objectives whilst also boosting profitability.
In today’s world, where the landscape is changing on a daily or even hourly basis, it’s crucial that businesses have the capability to adapt and be flexible to meet their customers’ needs.
“With this event, we’re working with some of the industry’s biggest names to shed light on the key packaging sector trends affecting businesses right now. We’ll not only be demonstrating some of the very latest innovations new to the market or at an advanced stage of development, but we’ll also spotlight how focusing on sustainability can help overcome some of these challenges while driving profitability.”
Throughout the free-to-attend event, speakers from some of the biggest names in labels and packaging flexo and prepress will lead discussion and presentations on how to achieve profit and sustainability in print. Sessions will include everything from the latest advances in editing software and color management, which can boost quality and productivity while minimizing waste, through to innovations in platemaking that maximize quality, eliminate errors and improve overall efficiency.
“The groundbreaking AVT print inspection module empowers labels converters to inspect and detect defects in varnish coatings during a live label print run,” said Jan. “As an add-on to the Helios system, the Varnish Inspection Module enables viewing and inspection of varnish and coating on various printed substrates simultaneously with print inspection. This unique and patented module detects issues such as varnish misregister, partial and full starvation simultaneously with the existing print defect detection, enabling labels converters to achieve maximum output while reducing waste in their print production process.”
Adding a top-of-the-line edition to the successful family of CDI Crystal XPS plate imaging and exposing solutions, Esko is also underlining its commitment to quality with the new CDI Crystal XPS ‘Quartz Edition’.
“Truly the pinnacle of flexo platemaking, the Quartz Edition combines the upgraded optics of the CDI Crystal with optimized Crystal Screens, introducing 2000 lpi surface structures (Q-Cells,” said Jan. “Providing another major leap forward in flexo plate imaging speed and print quality, it combines the upgraded optics of the CDI Crystal with optimized Crystal Screening software, optimizing final print quality and offering a genuine alternative to gravure.”
The one-day event has been specifically tailored for those business owners, prepress managers and production professionals in the label and packaging sector who are committed to maximizing the profitability of their business.
