MacDermid Graphic Solutions introduced three new liquid photopolymer resins, specifically designed for corrugated printing applications—MRC, LTS, and M Cap 45. MRC is a resin that does not require the GPX step, thus speeding up workflow. LTS is a softer resin designed for printing on lower-quality boards. M Cap 45 is a new capping resin developed by MacDermid that can be used in conjunction with new and existing liquid resins for corrugated applications.
We are thrilled to be launching these additions to our M System platform, said Ryan Vest, global director of innovation at MacDermid. Our focus and commitment to liquid photopolymer technology remains strong due to the dedicated and experienced team we have in place.
Pamarco announced the investment in two new lasers for its ceramic anilox business and major plasma upgrades. The first laser, a 3.5 meter ALE, will be installed in Pamarco’s La Palma, Calif. location in April 2018.

We continue to demonstrate our commitment to the packaging industry with investments, said Parmarco’s flexo division president, John Burgess. Not just in capital, but investments in our people and in the education of the market—these will provide a return for generations to come.
