The Flexographic Technical Association (FTA) recently selected the KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic System as the winner of its 2009 Flexographic Technical Association Technical Innovation Award. The award, which was presented Sunday at the Foundation of Flexographic Technical Association's 2009 Annual Forum and INFO*FLEX Exhibition, recognizes companies that have developed new or improved innovative technology and printing techniques.
“Kodak brings a wealth of knowledge and market insight to its family of flexo platemaking solutions, and to be recognized by one of the industry’s premier associations speaks to the quality, efficiency and productivity we’ve been able to deliver to customers with the FLEXCEL NX System,” said John Cross, General Manager, Packaging Products, Prepress Solutions, Kodak.
The FTA congratulated Kodak for having its technology chosen. The association noted that the judging was once again very competitive, and the award is highly respected within the industry.
Winner of the 2008 PIA/GATF InterTech Technology Award and the Flexographic Pre-Press Platemakers Association Technology Innovator of the Year Award, the KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic System provides previously unachievable offset class, gravure quality printing on a wide variety of substrates—including paper, flexible film, foil, paperboard and label stock. The FLEXCEL NX System helps ensure stability and repeatability, both in prepress and on press.
A number of Kodak customers also received Excellence in Print Awards in a variety of categories from FTA for projects produced using the FLEXCEL NX System.
“We congratulate our customers on these well-deserved recognitions and will continue to bring them innovative solutions to help grow their businesses,” Cross added.
