Bobst UK & Ireland is celebrating as the company’s Digital Inspection Table (DIT) took home a Gold 2020 EFIA Award in the Technical Innovation category.
DIT is a quality-assurance centre designed to drive productivity by eliminating print production errors in the flexographic process. In doing so, the innovation plays its part in the reduction of waste, in terms of material, labour and time.
Craig Moran, Zone Business Director at Bobst UK & Ireland, commented, “We are, of course, delighted that our ground-breaking DIT technology has been recognised at the prestigious EFIA awards. It’s a strong example of how BOBST operates – DIT technology meets the evolving needs and demands of today’s packaging supply chain, it’s not innovation for innovation’s sake.”
He concluded, “Across the full flexographic print supply chain, advancement often comes in the form of step-changes rather than fundamental shifts. With DIT, we demonstrate that this isn’t always the case – the future of flexo efficiency is in using technology that disrupts traditional methods, to ultimately protect the bottom line and diminish waste outputs that are so critical to today’s packaging printers and converters. To have the BOBST team’s hard work recognised at the EFIA ceremony is extremely rewarding.”
