The DuPont Cyrel DigiCorr System for printing on corrugated packaging recently received the 2010 Technological Innovator of the Year award from the Flexographic Pre-Press Platemakers Association (FPPA).
Presented at the FPPA's annual meeting in Ft. Myers, Fla., the award recognizes technological achievement in the administration or production of the flexo pre-press process. The association noted the unique technical attributes of the Cyrel DigiCorr System, as well as its contribution to advancing flexography in the corrugated printing industry. The system faced formidable competition from numerous entries of many leading companies serving the profession.
"As a science company, we are proud to be chosen as this year's Technological Innovator," said Bob Hannum, corrugated segment manager, DuPont Packaging Graphics. "Considerable work has gone into the Cyrel DigiCorr System, and we see it as an important contribution to both corrugated and flexo printing in the spirit of other advances, such as Cyrel FAST thermal platemaking, Cyrel Digital plates and Cyrel round sleeves."
