ProFILE Communication GmbH, based in Vreden, Germany, has successfully completed the Miraclon Certification Program for KODAK FLEXCEL NX Plates. The program verifies and confirms the ability of FLEXCEL NX System users to meet international flexographic platemaking standards. It represents a feature set that drives industry-leading efficiency, repeatability, and consistent quality in flexo plate production. Comprehensive data measurements and analyses are also carried out as part of the certification process.

ProFILE has been a user of KODAK FLEXCEL NX Technology for ten years and today houses two FLEXCEL NX Wide Systems, with FLEXCEL NX Plates accounting for around 70% its total flexo plate production. The company continuously invests in new technology, most recently in lower-emission washer technology, UV LED exposure and quality control measurement.

“The FLEXCEL NX Certification is an important component of our quality assurance. In addition to our permanent internal process controls and regular equipment maintenance, this gives us official confirmation that our flexo platemaking works optimally and that we can always guarantee our customers the best possible quality,” says ProFILE Communication’s Managing Director, Dirk Hemsing. “It is, of course, also a marketing tool for us to present our high quality standards to the market and thus position ourselves favorably against our competitors.”
