Nippon Color, a complete solution provider for printing and packaging industry will showcase a wide range of products at the Pamex show to be held at the Bombay Exhibition Center in Mumbai from 27 – 30 March 2023.
The theme of this year’s show for the printing and allied industries, being organized by the All India Federation of Master Printers (AIFMP), is ‘Convergence in Print’.
Pamex is taking place after a gap of a few years. In these years, the company added multiple products that will be showcased in stand D40, Hall 1. These include sustainable solutions that reduce the impact on the environment.
Akshat Pardiwala, COO of Nippon color said, “For the offset segment, Nippon Color has started getting traction for Fujifilm ZX, a breakthrough process-less plate that delivers many new features to help offset printers integrate it into their production process flow; from prepress through the pressroom operating environment. ZX has improved durability, high visibility, and robust scratch resistance. For the flexo market, we have an exciting plate-making solution from Fujifilm. Flenex FW is water-wash Flexo plates that provide the highest print quality at the fastest production times, while significantly lowering cost-in-use compared to thermal, solvent, or other water-wash technologies. We will be displaying the plate samples along with C-Touch, which is a European build water-wash processor.”
In terms of digital, the company is focusing on Screen Truepress Jet, a high-productivity UV Inkjet label press that supports a wide range of applications. It ensures an expanded color gamut with the help of orange and blue inks with CMYK + white, Pardiwala adds.
Nippon Color wants to reinstate the importance of sustainability. According to Pardiwala, “Going green has always been important for print producers, but this approach is stronger than ever. Predominantly, our industry has focused on printing fast in great volumes. The scenario is likely to shift soon as customers demand efficient value-driven products while reducing the impact on the environment. We will give live demonstrations of our water-wash flexo plate processor: C-Touch. Samples printed on Screen Truepress Jet will be on display at our stand.”
“The last Pamex exhibition was in January 2020, right before the pandemic hit us after which most businesses came to a halt. During Covid, we saw a reduction in new business inquiries. We needed to prioritize our existing business and service. We identified our key sources of revenue and strengthened our foundation, which is pre-press systems and CTP plates. We are again seeing businesses open up and grow. We expect this show to be a success in terms of footfall and get serious inquiries for sales, especially for our newly added brands such as Screen and Fujifilm. Covid taught us how fragile businesses can be, so we are aiming to be a holistic supplier to the industry.”
