EFIA Gold Award for Technical Innovation

A unique collaboration project involving Cheshire Anilox Technology ltd. has won a Gold Award for Technical Innovation at the European Flexographic Industry Association (EFIA).

Cheshire Anilox along with API Foils, Innovia Films, Mark Andy, JFM Plates, ReproBrand  and GMG Colour produced a printed swatch booklet entitled “Breaking the Boundaries of Cold Foil” . The booklet was created to display multiple promotional prints and labels designs, with each page offering something different to push the boundaries of cold foil and inspire customers.

The booklet was printed using the most advance Anilox technology: MaxFlo UV. This is a unique, high release engraving exclusively developed by Cheshire Anilox Technology for cold foil applications. Its excellent release properties and superior control of the lay down makes it ideal for intricate cold foil designs, involving both large and fine detail work such as the examples showcased in the swatch booklet.

Sonia Arcos, Technical Sales Director for Cheshire Anilox Technology, who picked up the award said, “It is a great honour to receive the EFIA Gold Award for Technical Innovation. This recognises our commitment for continual technical innovation and development in Anilox technology to bring higher efficiency and quality reproduction to the flexographic print industry”
