Sales and Marketing Director, Jack van der Heiden, from CFP Harlingen, comments, “We are delighted to have won this award in recognition of the excellent results we achieved for our client, Bofrost. FleXtreme represents a new generation in flexo printing that offers print quality comparable with gravure printing.

We achieved this using Sun Passion ink, minimum 54 dpcm screening, and 460 line anilox rollers.

“We would like to thank Bofrost for their courage in allowing us to demonstrate this revolutionary flexo technology, and they are equally delighted with the results.”

CFP Harlingen faced competition from another six finalists to win the award. The judges praised the team’s “Co-operation and craftsmanship to achieve outstanding results, where less is definitely more.”
