MacDermid Develops LUX Certification Program

Press release from the issuing company

MacDermid Printing Solutions announced today the creation of the LUX Certification Program, an initiative whereby tradeshops and printers using the LUX Platemaking Process become officially certified through MacDermid. To achieve LUX Certification, a company must:

* Demonstrate proficiency and technical accuracy  producing plates using the LUX Platemaking Process, and
* Show that it has been able to improve print quality and consistency through the application of the LUX Process.

Over the course of two weeks at drupa, 19 customers have been certified through the program. Fittingly, the first company to become LUX Certified was CSW, Inc., based in Ludlow, Massachusetts, USA. CSW played a key role in the testing the LUX Process and was the first customer to use LUX in commercial applications.  

The first group of LUX Certified users is shown below. These users have demonstrated the ability to achieve maximum print effectiveness through the LUX Platemaking Process in live commercial print jobs. MacDermid expects to certify the rest of its 100+ installation sites in the coming months. The most up-todate list of LUX Certified tradeshops and printers can be found on MacDermid’s website at http://printing.macdermid.com/cms/our-technology/lux-certification/index.shtml.
