Mark Andy’s latest flexo platform, the Performance Series S9, was developed with the newest trends in mind. Unveiled at Labelexpo Americas, the S9 builds on the company’s long-standing flexo foundation with high-speed automation, enhanced drying capability, and a modular design. Ben Luly, product manager, Mark Andy, sat down with L&NW to discuss the future of flexo, what makes the S9 different, and how this press system is helping converters improve throughput, reduce waste, and stay competitive in high-growth application areas.

Meanwhile, LemuGroup has taken a key strategic step with the integration of Converting Equipment International (CEI), marking LemuGroups first production plant in the United States. This addition reinforces LemuGroup’s ability to offer faster technical service, more efficient parts supply, and solid local support to customers across the country.

“Converters need partners who can respond quickly and deliver complete solutions,” says CEI’s Simon Gross. “This alliance with LemuGroup gives our North American customers faster access to global technology while opening new doors for CEI equipment and expertise abroad.”
