Monotech Systems, a leading manufacturer of digital inkjet printers and presses and a one-stop solution provider, has installed a Glunz & Jensen Concept 302ECDLF flexo plate exposure unit and 305 DW flexo plate processor at Ahmedabad-based flexographic repro house Quality Prepress.
Quality Prepress is a trade shop supplying prepress and flexo plates to packaging and label converters across the country. It’s a leading prepress bureau producing high-quality flexo plates committed to introducing innovations and the latest technologies for the leading packaging and label converters and brand owners.
“We are very pleased with the G&J machine and flexo plate results. When we started our operation, our existing setup was not productive enough, but the G&J equipment is consistent and delivers high-quality results. It has helped us double our production, and hence our distribution has increased across the nation. Monotech Systems’ support is admirable, and I believe with this trust factor, you move forward confidently,” says Darshan Pandya, director, Quality Prepress.

The Covid-19 pandemic led to the country-wide lockdown on 25 March 2020. It will be two years tomorrow as I write this. What have we learned in this time? Maybe the meaning of resilience since small companies like us have had to rely on our resources and the forbearance of our employees as we have struggled to produce our trade platforms.
The print and packaging industries have been fortunate, although the commercial printing industry is still to recover. We have learned more about the digital transformation that affects commercial printing and packaging. Ultimately digital will help print grow in a country where we are still far behind in our paper and print consumption and where digital is a leapfrog technology that will only increase the demand for print in the foreseeable future.
Web analytics show that we now have readership in North America and Europe amongst the 90 countries where our five platforms reach. Our traffic which more than doubled in 2020, has at times gone up by another 50% in 2021. And advertising which had fallen to pieces in 2020 and 2021, has started its return since January 2022.
As the economy approaches real growth with unevenness and shortages a given, we are looking forward to the PrintPack India exhibition in Greater Noida. We are again appointed to produce the Show Daily on all five days of the show from 26 to 30 May 2022.
