FlexoOne Invests In Two Nilpeter Flexo Presses FlexoOne Inc., Salt Lake City, Utah, has invested in two Nilpeter servo flexo presses. “When it became apparent we needed to expand our press capacity ...,” said Matt Sherry, CEO, and Scott Opfar, COO, FlexoOne, “... the correct decision was Nilpeter for the effectiveness of their FB-Line, in- cluding servo motors and auto-registration to name a few.Additionally, their customer support has been in- credible to the point that we ended up buying both a 7-color and a 4-color to serve our customers needs better, as well as expand our printing capabilities.” In other news, The Label Shoppe, City of Industry, California, will be one of the first label producers in North America to use Nilpeter's FA-4* press in com- bination with its clean-hand technology, dot-to-dot (D2D) registry system, and complete automation. “With [the FA-4*], we can easily run short runs, long runs, high-end wine and spirit labels, ECLs, and criti- cal register jobs that would previously only be possi- ble on web offset or digital presses,” said Ryan Gaytan,Vice President. Additionally, Mepco Label Systems, a Lodi, California manufacturer of pressure sensitive labels, flexible packaging and shrink sleeves, has purchased a Nilpeter FB 4200 8-color servo press with UV and hot air drying.With the addition, Mepco now has 13 flexo presses and one digital press.
