In The Round Imaging

We image In The Round (ITR) photopolymer plates, whether they are seamless designs or not! What a great alternative to the gravure industry.

The future of flexographic plate making is ITR imaging. Consumer Product Companies are demanding tighter registration for their brand identity, while press manufacturers and printers are wanting more speed and faster set up. The ANSWER is Imaging In The Round.
