Somerset, England – Scodix, the leader in digital enhancement solutions for the graphic arts industry, today announced the signing of an exclusive agreement with Compact Foilers Ltd (UK) for the supply of foiling modules for digital print enhancement. Scodix, which already offers several digital enhancements (Scodix Sense™, Scodix SPOT™, Scodix Glittering™, Scodix VDP/VDE™, Scodix Metallic™, Scodix Braille™, and Scodix Barcode™) will benefit from the agreement immediately. The company expects to exhibit a digital foiling module, which integrates Compact Foilers’ dedicated technology for the Scodix Ultra Pro press, at next month’s Graph Expo in Chicago (September 13th – 15th) in booth #2231. The agreement with Compact Foilers is effective immediately. 

The resulting aim of the partnership will be a digital foiling unit that will be robust, production savvy, supports countless substrates and most popular foils, and will overcome all the time and waste issues inherent with current available solutions. The collaboration of Scodix and Compact Foilers expertise and dedication to critically accurate registration and consistent reliability makes the relationship an ideal alliance. Scodix, who founded the digital enhancement segment in 2007, now has over 200 customers worldwide.
 
"This agreement promises to expand our capabilities dramatically, offering our customers an additional range of effects on all types of substrates," notes Scodix CTO and Co-Founder Eli Grinberg. "We have worked closely with the Compact Foiler team to integrate their technology into our process and the results are outstanding. Our collaboration has already produced an inline digitized foiling solution that is unmatched in both production speeds and quality. This agreement aims to have many positive ramifications for both companies."
