Electronics For Imaging (EFI), a provider of digital inkjet technologies for corrugated packaging and display production, is showcasing the winning production capabilities of its versatile industrial inkjet portfolio at the 2024 AICC/TAPPI SuperCorrExpo in Orlando being held from 8 – 12 September 2024. With its broad range of preferred solutions, EFI continues to push the boundaries of industrial digital printing to help independent sheet plants, box manufacturers, and integrated paper and packaging producers drive greater efficiency, sustainability and profitability.
Inkjet innovation for corrugated packaging
EFI stands out as the only company to offer both water-based and UV ink solutions for digital corrugated packaging printing, and the company’s packaging experts are at hand in booth #2711 to discuss breakthrough solutions such as the popular 1.4-meter-wide EFI Nozomi 14000 LED inkjet printer, as well as EFI’s new Nozomi 14000 AQ model featuring water-based inks.
EFI, in partnership with Packsize, has also developed the X5 Nozomi, an on-demand, full-color LED inkjet, right-sized box system. This first of its kind solution creates printed, custom-sized corrugated packaging in real time, changing the rules of manufacturing efficiency for packaging producers, ecommerce companies and third-party logistics providers.
EFI’s innovations are backed by two decades of expertise in industrial digital printing. With eight generations of single-pass technology and over 60 Nozomi printer installations completed worldwide, the company has a proven track record of delivering reliable, high-performance solutions.
Expanding beyond single-pass technology
EFI is not only a leader in single-pass technology, but also excels in multi-pass inkjet technologies, including new solutions such as the superwide-format EFI VUTEk Q3h XP hybrid flatbed/roll-to-roll UV LED inkjet printer that can deliver premium-quality, short-run corrugated display and packaging jobs, along with many other types of graphics applications.
“The success of EFI and our digital printing product lines stems from more than just advanced technology; it’s our deep understanding of customer needs that sets us apart,” said EFI CEO Frank Pennisi. “We don’t just provide products —we deliver complete solutions with the equipment, inks, primers, software, and services to successfully guide corrugated packaging providers through their digital transformation.”
EFI’s digital printing technology offers significant benefits, including market differentiation, faster job turnarounds, and enhanced customer relationships. Research by IT Strategies confirms that EFI customers with Nozomi print technology have been able to generate new business, expand into new segments, offer higher-margin applications, and provide better overall service.
In addition to the quality and flexibility of its digital inkjet printing solutions, EFI’s technology helps businesses increase total plant capacity by freeing up printing equipment capacity.
