New Plate Technology Now Expands to Serve Corrugated Board and the Broader Flexographic Printing Market 

WILMINGTON, Del. – DuPont Advanced Printing (DuPont) today announced they will highlight their newest additions to the DuPont™ Cyrel® EASY plate platform at booth 629 during FTA INFOFLEX 2017 April 30 – May 3 in Phoenix, Ariz.

The additions to their portfolio include DuPont™ Cyrel® EASY EPC, a soft digital plate with a built-in flat top dot developed especially for post-print corrugated printers and medium durometer plates designed with flat-top dots that fit into the FAST and solvent workflow. Cyrel® EASY EPC delivers the highest quality image reproduction while minimizing the fluting effect when printing on a wide variety of corrugated boards. Visitors to the DuPont booth also will be able to sign up to test the medium durometer EASY plates.

“We are excited to showcase our new offerings at InfoFlex 2017 and highlight the expansion of our EASY plate portfolio to serve additional customer applications and a variety of substrates. The expansion of our EASY plate portfolio confirms our commitment to customers, particularly in addressing their need for increased productivity and less make-ready time,” said Sam Ponzo, regional director, Americas, DuPont Advanced Printing.

DuPont™ Cyrel® EASY plates simplify the prepress process with built-in flat top digital dots, resulting in increased productivity and consistency.  This is part of an on-going effort by DuPont to improve quality, sustainability and productivity for flexographic printing. DuPont™ EASY plates also offer:

• Simplified workflow that results in higher consistency;
• Excellent ink transfer with superior printing uniformity;
• High exposure resolution that yields better quality reproduction;
• Less make-ready time that improves press productivity.

Bob Hannum, corrugated segment manager, North America, DuPont Advanced Printing, will be sharing more about DuPont™ Cyrel® EASY EPC for the corrugated market during InfoFlex Solutions Theatre, May 1 from 4:15 – 4:35 p.m. MST.
