Introduction and Need of the Product:
Flexographic printing has gained significant attention for the printing application in the food & beverages packaging industry in the last two decades. The printing technique is widely used for printing on the paper & paperboard products and flexible packaging such as bags, pouches, packaging films, labels, etc. The printing technique is not just used to print on specialty films but also on non-porous substrates such as plastic bags & pouches. The flexographic printing process utilizes a flexible relief plate which is adhered to a printing cylinder. The relief plate is also known as flexographic printing plate. The plate is made up of the liquid or solid photopolymer material or molded rubber material.
The image area which needs to be printed on substrate is raised above the relief plate. The plates could be produced using analog or digital platemaking processes. During the printing process, the inked plate mounted on the roller directly applies image to the substrate material. The substrate material could be coated paper or packaging films & foils. Flexographic printing plates are available in the variety of sizes to suit printing application on different packaging products including liquid cartons, corrugated boxes, labels & films, etc. The three types of flexographic press widely used today are stack press, in-line press, and common impression cylinder press. Flexographic printing is prominently used in the food & beverages industry. Food & beverages industry could be segmented into snacks food, ready-to-eat meals, pet food, bakery products, dairy products, alcoholic beverages, non-alcoholic beverages, and others.
