Flexo prepress specialist Heaford is reinforcing the importance of reliable and hard-working plate mounting solutions to printers in the USA during FTA FORUM INFOFLEX 2026. The event runs April 26-29 in Milwaukee, WI.

Heaford US will also take part in the annual INFOFLEX Solutions Showcase, which runs April 27-28.

Heaford will showcase its range of flexo plate mounting and proofing solutions for numerous flexo applications. These include labels, flexible packaging, corrugated, direct mail, and more.

Heaford’s portfolio also includes ModularMount, the easy-to-use flexo plate mounting solution that converters can scale as their business grows. From an initial investment in a manual system, ModularMount provides a simple and efficient route to fully automated plate mounting.

INFOFLEX presence

Tim Paul, Heaford sales director, will be present for the duration of INFOFLEX. He says, “Our mounting and proofing solutions that we are presenting at INFOFLEX are renowned for their simplicity and reliability. They are trusted by flexo printers across the US to respond proactively to their biggest challenges.

“Flexo printers in the USA are juggling rising costs and margin pressures, at the same time as competing with the growing presence of digital for shorter runs and customization,” Paul continues. “They are struggling to make flexo economically viable for ever shorter jobs, with bottlenecks around frequent changeovers, color matching, and press downtime limiting capacity and profitability.

“This makes investment in flexo prepress essential. Our solutions simplify complex steps and make the most challenging processes super slick and efficient. This keeps flexo printers productive and competitive,” he concludes.

Danny Scales, the recently appointed Heaford US sales manager, will also be at INFOFLEX. He remarks, “Hard-working mounting equipment makes the difference.  Heaford’s solutions are built to last and are the engine of your pressroom.   

“They are simple to learn and easy to use,” Scales continues. “They are reliable and robust and can be used constantly and not risk losing alignment and ruining print quality. And just when you think it’s had enough, ModularMount can be upgraded to give you even more use out of it for another 5, 6, or 7 years, and even longer. Come and see us at Booth 705 to learn for yourself how this makes the difference.”
