“Extending the scope, new technology for gravure” is the title for the technology forum and open house event that will take place at Bobst Italia, in San Giorgio Monferrato, Italy, on May 11-12, 2017. Hosted in the Competence Center of BOBST’s Center of Excellence for web-fed gravure, lamination and coating technologies, the event will be the first formal demonstration of BOBST’s new gravure printing platforms unveiled at drupa 2016.
”For the gravure industry, keeping pace with the new reality of global changes in consumer behaviors, and with the expectations of both brand owners and consumers, means constant evolution and innovation to address the market pressures faced by our customers,“ said Michele Vitiello, managing director of Bobst Italia and head of the Product Line Gravure and Lamination.
“Our aim is to ensure that we can support gravure printers to take advantage of product diversification opportunities that can open up for them with the introduction of new, more eco-friendly, thinner substrates and consumables,” Vitiello added.
These and other aspects of how BOBST succeeds in leading innovation in gravure technology will be at the forefront of the event programme.
“The event at Bobst Italia will showcase where sustained R&D investments can lead, which is far beyond the conventional view of gravure being the process that excels in print quality and consistency,” noted Erik Bothorel, head of the Business Unit Web-fed and member of the Group Executive Committee. “We have turned our printing presses into innovation platforms that combine the strengths of gravure with the impelling necessities of the industry.”
