In the past few years, Ditom has introduced a whole new line of Aquaflex flexo plates into the Italian market. Developed after painstaking research by a panel of Japanese partners, not only does this groundbreaking technology present great advanteges in terms of production, it also lays the foundations for a cleaner, more efficient work environment.

Advanced Technology
Extremely quick washing process, excellent definition, extra long runs on press and more possible reprints. Aquaflex is compatible with all UV-based, water-based and solvent-based inks and is also available in a patented digital version, which features an exclusive black (LAM) matted layer.

Solvent-free Production Process
Until recently, printers operating in the label and flexible packaging industries could only expect quality results from solvent-based plates. As a consequence, they would rather have ordered their plates from plate trade shops than face the high handling costs entailed by the use of solvents for plate processing: machines, fans, aspiration, and related disposal issues. Nowadays, alternative technologies are available and quality is no longer a concern, as Aquaflex plates are already prepared for HD certifications.

Aquaflex allows to eliminate solvents from the work environment and achieve a quicker production process, benefitting not only your company but also the environment: Aquaflex is the key!
