Mark Andy Sees Success at Labelexpo Europe with 20 Flexo and Digital Equipment Sales

Mark Andy reports a successful Labelexpo Europe 2019, garnering 20 press agreements on the show floor, 10 flexo and 10 digital.

Attendees had the opportunity to be the first globally to witness new innovations from the OEM company. Live demonstrations were conducted daily on the brand new Evolution Series and Digital Pro 3 with semi-rotary, as well as the single source hybrid press, Digital Series HD.

Evolution Series, an entry-level full servo flexo press, debuted to captivated crowds interested in learning more about its capabilities and scalable options. Demonstrations of the press were well-attended during the four-day event, with a highlight being the minimal waste challenge wagered during the changeover.
