Let us review the variety of Printing Methods commonly used today for Mass scale
Production.

Flexography

This printing process was founded in 1860 in the USA and arrived in France in 1905.
Joël, a retired machine assembler remembers :
“Flexo printing used to be reserved to medium-demand works such as baker paper bags.
Step by step, this process was improved to become a high-quality printing method.
Today, flexo printing competes with other printing
processes historically known as more accurate.
Flexo printing is, with digital printing, the only printing process that has known a continuous
and sustained growth over the past 6 or 7 years.
The machine producers made miracles to suit difficult markets such as label printing and
flexible packaging for example.”

An important stage after manufacturing of goods or their procurement is their preparation for
shipment which involves packaging and labeling of goods to be exported. Proper packaging
and labeling not only makes the final product look attractive but also save a huge amount of
money by saving the product from wrong handling the export process.
The primary role of packaging is to contain, protect and preserve a product as well as aid in its
handling and final presentation. Packaging also refers to the process of design, evaluation, and
production of packages. The packaging can be done within the export company or the job can
be assigned to an outside packaging company.

A famous person once said, Live long and die healthy. Being healthy is no accident. It is a
challenge that everybody is facing in today's scenario. And to keep fit and healthy, people are
trying to eat food that is as fresh as possible. Here comes the role of vacuum packaging
machines. A vacuum packaging machine eliminates oxygen from the pack, making the food
stay fresher, taste better and look better.
Why Aseptic?
Aseptic represents a major advance over alternative forms of sterilization and shelf stability.
It allows perishable items to be shipped and stored without refrigeration,
saving costs through every step of the supply chain.
Aseptic also provides consumers a higher quality and better tasting
product than conventional bottling and canning.
In terms of health and wellness, aseptic generally retains a third more vitamins and nutrients
than the “old” canning and bottling technologies.
