FTA Plans In-Person INFOFLEX Event

FTA’s annual INFOFLEX exhibition is set to take place May 3-4 at the Kansas City Convention Center in Kan- sas City, Missouri. Coming off a year where decision-makers relied on virtual open houses and online demonstrations, IN- FOFLEX 2021 promises to be the first opportunity to return to an in-person and on-the-show-floor environ- ment. INFOFLEX 2021 will be held in conjunction with FO- RUM 2021, FTA’s annual technical confer-ence, which takes place May 2-5 at the Loews Kansas City Hotel.

Bobst Opens Barcelona Demonstration Center

Bobst has expanded its demonstration capabilities with a dedicated demo center in Barcelona, Spain, the first one outside of Switzerland, providing an opportu- nity to experience two label presses with the Mouvent Cluster Technology. The first two machines in the demonstration cen- ter are the Mouvent LB701-UV and Mouvent LB702- UV, two 6-color plus white label presses operating at speeds of up to 100 m/min. The Mouvent Cluster Technology allows label pro- duction on a wide range of substrates such as paper, self-adhesive labels, transparent, metallic, and flexible materials. In the future, the center will also house the Bobst Master DM5, all-in-one, all-In-line press digitally auto- mated for on-the-fly non-stop job change, high press uptime, and repeatability. Avery Dennison Portfolio Receives APR Recognition Avery Dennison Label and Packaging Materials’ Ma- chine Direction Orientation (MDO) and Polyethylene (PE) films have been recognized to comply with the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) Critical Guid- ance for HDPE recycling and the company’s BOPP and MDO films have been recognized to comply with APR Critical Guidance for Flexible PE recycling. Following the earlier APR recognition of the Avery Dennison Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) portfolio, the company has reportedly become the first label manufacturer to offer a complete range of film solutions for brands and converters seeking to enhance the recyclability of rigid HDPE and the first to offer APR recognized films for f lexible PE plastics.
