Fujifilm Europe announced the launch of Fujifilm Superia, an integrated product offering that gives commercial printers the ability to make significant resource savings across five core areas of offset print production – materials, labour, energy, environment and water. The new solution pulls together the power of Fujifilm’s offset product portfolio, incorporating its XMF workflow, CtP systems, and plates and pressroom chemistry to provide a mechanism for offset printers to minimize resources and maximize efficiency and profitability.
Superia can minimize the waste associated with paper and ink, thereby reducing the overall cost. Other materials, including prepress chemistry and pressroom consumables, can also be minimized. Moreover, Superia provides an opportunity to minimize energy usage with the adoption of Fujifilm’s process-less plates. With this new printing solution, there are opportunities to minimize the discharge of chemical waste and exhaust gases that help protect the environment and reduce costs.
Graham Leeson, head of communications – graphic systems of Fujifilm Europe said, “As commercial printing continues to become more and more competitive, printers need to finetune their businesses to extract maximum efficiencies and profitability from the offset production process. By combining Fujifilm’s advanced offset solutions with our extensive knowledge of print production, our integrated Superia offering will help printers unlock greater resource savings to enhance their profitability.”
The impact, resilience, and growth of responsible packaging in a wide region are daily chronicled by Packaging South Asia.
A multi-channel B2B publication and digital platform such as Packaging South Asia is always aware of the prospect of new beginnings and renewal. Its 16-year-old print monthly, based in New Delhi, India has
demonstrated its commitment to progress and growth. The Indian and Asian packaging industries have shown resilience in the face of ongoing challenges over the past three years.
As we present our publishing plan for 2023, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2023 will reach 6.3%. Packaging industry growth has exceeded GDP growth even when allowing for inflation in the past three years.
The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 33% over the past three years. With orders in place, we expect another 33% capacity addition from 2023 to 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels have grown similarly. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.
Even given the disruptions of supply chains, raw material prices, and the challenge of responsible and sustainable packaging, packaging in all its creative forms and purposes has significant headroom to grow in India and Asia. Our context and coverage engulf the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and further – to waste collection and recycling. We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers.
