It also continues to introduce new technology be- cause every new advance in the converting industry solves one problem while sometimes simultaneously introducing new challenges.“The increased speed of today’s presses can be an amazing asset and allow greater productivity, but the presses are now so fast that a lot of printers cannot keep up with cleaning the anilox rolls,” said Potter. “This is something we continue to address, most recently with the new Flexo Wash FW 992XL Anilox Sleeve Cleaner, which will clean two wide web anilox sleeves at the same time in about 15 minutes.” Going forward, Flexo Wash plans to adhere closely to its original mission statement of addressing the needs of its customers and meeting them in as effi- cient a manner as possible. “[My father] knew that if you combined great ser- vice with the Flexo Wash technology we could help improve printing processes for the label and package printing industry in North America,” explained Patrick.“He was right.” Multi-Color Completes Constantia Labels Acquisition Multi-Color Corporation has completed its acquisi- tion of the Labels Division of Constantia Flexibles from Constantia Flexibles GmbH in a cash and equity transaction valued at approximately $1.3 billion.
