Esko successfully extended its partnership with Comexi, a leading company specializing in machinery solutions for the flexible packaging converting industry. Under the partnership, Esko is collaborating with Comexi’s Manel Xifra Boada Technological Centre to train and certify Comexi staff to help them transition from a press sale to a solutions sale that provides customers with a broader set of products, services, knowledge, training and support by sharing unique Esko expertise in color, plate making, workflow and more. This will lead to higher customer satisfaction, successful installations, and fast production start-up as request by converters.
For some years, the Manel Xifra Boada Technological Center advises technically converters worldwide on flexographic printing and prepress, thereby developing a work methodology aimed at converters in order to optimize print quality and color adjustment efficiently during job changeovers. The certification program on Esko FlexProof Proofing solution and Esko Equinox Extended Gamut Printing solution reinforces the knowledge of technicians and validates them as consultants in the use of both software during the machine’s characterization process.
“This partnership with Esko and the resulting ColorFlex bundle is a critical element of our growth strategy and helps us to accompany customers since the beginning of the process,” comments David Centelles, Corporate Marketing and Technological Center Director at Comexi.
In this regard, the consultancy of the Manel Xifra Boada Technological Centre in the field of prepress is reflected by the launch of the CingularMatch I. Also known as ColorFlex, this optional product developed by Comexi is offered to converters in order to achieve stabilization of color parameters from the very beginning of the process. This service is available with the purchase of a flexographic machine or in already installed equipment.
• A Color Excellence bundle that will be delivered with each Comexi press and training.
The advantages the CingularMatch I system offers to converters are: greater reliability during color testing, efficiency of the four-color adjustment, guarantee of the repeatability of jobs, color settling times minimization during job changeover and process standardization.
In addition, Comexi is also trained in Esko Equinox and PressSync, ensuring the company has all knowledge to support joint customers in optimizing the digital process for conventional presses, offset and flexo, from Comexi.
