Our management team meeting this week via vid- eo conferencing included a question about how we will know when its OK to return to the office? When will our sales and tech teams be welcomed back into pressrooms? The answer is uncertain. I guess we will know it when we see it.Yet,America’s essential infra- structure continues to operate. FLXON continues to receive shipments from SWEDEV, to process orders and ship doctor blades to flexographic pressrooms across North America. Those pressrooms continue to print flexible packaging, labels and folding cartons to meet the everyday needs of consumers.They continue to tightly manage their process to assure quality while eliminating waste. FLXON and other supplier partners continue to provide troubleshooting assistance re- motely. In a sense – LIFE GOES ON – just differently! When the dust settles,we will likely return to a new normal.There are things we are learning about how we operate our everyday lives we may want to hold onto. I hope our leadership will develop a Corrective Action based on what could have been done to be better prepared for this pandemic. We know it will happen again. In the meantime, we appreciate how fortunate we and others in the flexo industry are compared to the millions of Americans laid off from jobs in non-es- sential industries. Color-Logic Expands Online Training Program For seven years, Color-Logic has provided licensed Color-Logic printers around the world with web-based training, suitable for their captive designers, external designers, agencies, and brands. Color-Logic developed these training programs for two primary reasons:Time, because print personnel are often too busy during the day to learn new techniques, and thus need an effective means of learning at their own pace, and Location, because with licensed printers in more than 60 countries, the designer could well be in a different city or country,enabling licensed Color-Logic printers to expand markets in any direction. While it remains unclear how design will evolve be- yond the COVID-19 outbreak, online training and web based training will remain, which is why Color-Logic has expanding online resources for licensed printers and their captive and external designers. Color-Logic has added Master Class Tutorials for Adobe PhotoShop, Illustrator, and InDesign to provide extensive instruc- tion about how to add embellishments into artwork and make it truly stand out from the competition.
