Asahi Photoproducts to partner with Representaciones Pfeifer at Labelexpo Mexico

Asahi Photoproducts, a pioneer in flexographic photopolymer plate development, will be represented at Mexico’s first Labelexpo by Mexican distributor, Representaciones Pfeifer.

Asahi’s Afptm CleanPrint family of flexographic plates are suitable for printing on a wide range of substrates, from thin plates for label printing and flexible packaging, to thick plates for printing on corrugate. Plates can be selected based on individual substrate or job requirement, including out-of-the-box flat-top plates, kiss touch pressure to preserve corrugated fluting, printing with minimal dot gain and plates designed for printing with sticky inks.

‘We partnered with Asahi in 2021,’ said Gerardo Kahn Feldman, vice president of business development. ‘Although the company had a global reputation, its products were not available in Mexico at the time. It was a perfect opportunity to introduce the brand in Mexico. We are delighted to be representing Asahi Photoproducts and its Afptm CleanPrint line of flexographic printing plates at the premier of Labelexpo Mexico.’

‘Since we began representing Asahi Photoproducts in Mexico,’ Feldman added, ‘Our customers have experienced the range of solutions that were not available before in Mexico for flexographic printing, including both digital and analogue plates. They have also benefited from the ease of switching to these plates and the improvements they have seen in the press room. We will be sharing some of their case studies with visitors during the show.’

The event takes place April 26-28 at Mexico City’s World Trade Center. Representaciones Pfeifer will be located in Hall I, Booth I8.
