Yuncheng Plate-making invests in HP Indigo 20000 in strategy to reform as a service supplier

Shanxi Yuncheng Plate-making Group has more than 120 subsidiaries and over 10,000 employees around the world. Its production capacity is said to make it the world's largest professional platemaking supplier.

However, in a move to transition from being a traditional manufacturing enterprise to a comprehensive service supplier, the group has now formed Foresee Image Technology (Shanghai) and invested in the HP indigo 20000 digital press.

It has identified the HP Indigo 20000 as opening up, ‘a new field for packaging plants with unlimited possibilities.’ The digital press will enable Yuncheng Plate-Making to easily and efficiently respond to changing market demands, such as tight deadlines, various SKUs and customization. Food-safe characteristics and the ability to match established print processes, such as gravure, in quality are cited as further reasons for the investment.
