DuPont Launches Plate Technology Platform

Published: May 11, 2015

WILMINGTON, DE | DuPont Packaging Graphics today announces the market launch of a new flexographic printing plate technology platform designated Cyrel Easy This new technology platform is said to simplify the prepress process by building the flat top digital dot directly into the plate, resulting in increased productivity and consistency.

“DuPont is excited to bring forward yet another key innovation to advance flexography,” says John Chrosniak, global business director, DuPont Packaging Graphics. “By building flat top dot capability directly into Cyrel Easy plates, we’re making it fast and simple to enhance productivity, while delivering world-class print quality.”

For flexographic printers, converters, and trade shops looking for increased productivity, Cyrel FAST thermal and solvent platemaking system efficiency and consistency reportedly is increased by removing the flat top dot processing step and its associated cost. The result is a technology platform that offers customers the choice of both smooth and engineered surface plates that deliver high ink transfer and color saturation, regardless of existing workflow, company says.

Cyrel Easy technology is currently in market testing at select DuPont customers around the world, and commercial sales of the first generation of printing plates from the Cyrel Easy platform are scheduled for the third quarter of 2015.
