A strong approach to product development and precision in ink testing.
Toyo Ink Co. Ltd., a global player in the printing industry, has recently made a notable decision by investing in a new Nilpeter FA-17 flexo press. The decision fits perfectly into Toyo Ink’s commitment to innovation and a strong requirement for highly developed technological solutions.
Uniquely, Toyo Ink is repurposing this advanced piece of technology, typically used for label printing and flexible packaging, to focus on testing and refining printing inks. This innovative approach underlines Toyo Ink’s dedication to high-quality standards and meticulous attention to detail.
The press, ordered after a visit to the Nilpeter booth at Labelexpo Europe and a thorough Factory Acceptance Test at Nilpeter in Denmark, has been specifically configured to fit Toyo Ink’s unique requirements. Noteworthy technical features include temperature controlled ink chambers, allowing for precise control and measurement of ink properties
This strategic acquisition, facilitated by Nilpeter’s representative in Japan, SCREEN GP Japan, reflects Toyo Ink’s proactive stance in partnering with other innovative companies within the global printing industry.
Peter Eriksen, COO of Nilpeter, commented on the decision, expressing excitement about providing Toyo Ink with a press that aligns with their forward-thinking vision,
“I am genuinely excited about our new partnership with Toyo Ink. It is not merely about delivering a printing press. This partnership is designed to create value for both Toyo Ink, Nilpeter and printing companies around the world. With this move, it is clear that both our companies are committed to improving and shaping the future of flexo”.
