Jul 08, 2019

Associated Labels and Packaging is a premium digital and flexo printing company located in Vancouver, Canada. Their full-service, in-house facility offers art and pre-press, printing, and converting packaging abilities. To clean their anilox inventory, Associated Label & Packaging was using an ultrasonic cleaning method that would take numerous cycles to clean their anilox rolls. They wanted to establish a quicker method that would allow them the versatility to clean all of their anilox rolls they use for different applications – with the possibility to clean several rolls at once. They were also seeking a method that would provide a deeper clean for all the types of inks, adhesives and coatings they use.
