At PrintPack India 2025, Apex International is set to make a significant impact with the launch of its Anilox Audit Program, reinforcing its commitment to print quality and operational efficiency. As a global leader in anilox manufacturing, Apex continues to innovate and introduce solutions as per demand of todays markets and problems faced by the end users.
Driving Print Excellence with Anilox Audits
The newly introduced Anilox Audit Program is designed to help printers maximize their operational potential. By conducting comprehensive audits of anilox, Apex ensures they maintain optimal performance, ultimately benefiting the entire printing process.
The Anilox Audit Program enhances the overall performance of printing operations by ensuring anilox function at their best. Additionally, proactive maintenance through regular audits helps identify potential problems early, preventing costly repairs and extending the lifespan of anilox rollers.
Mangesh Bhise, Sales Director at Apex International, emphasized the importance of the program: “This is a major need right now. Some companies have their own inspection systems, but there are no set protocols. As a global leader, we know how to conduct anilox audits – checking, inspecting, and certifying the condition of rollers, assessing volume reductions, and determining when refurbishing is needed.”
Showcasing Consistency and Flexibility
In addition to the Anilox Audit Program, Apex is creating print samples that highlight how printers can achieve both consistency and flexibility with a limited set of anilox rollers. These samples, tailored for both wide-web and narrow-web markets, demonstrate how flexographic printing can cater to the rival the quality of rotogravure while maintaining the simplicity of flexo.
By utilizing advanced anilox technology, printers can now achieve high-definition prints with greater efficiency, reduced operational complexity, and minimized costs. The showcased samples at PrintPack India underline Apex’s ability to deliver precision printing across diverse packaging applications.
Mangesh Bhise added, “We’re here not just to showcase our solutions but to understand industry trends, challenges, and where we can add value. Our print samples are a testament to how a limited anilox set can still achieve high-quality, repeatable results.”
Innovating Beyond Anilox
Apex is not just focusing on anilox rollers; it is expanding its portfolio to include anilox protection, cleaning solutions, and composite sleeves. Apex has also been making moves in the embossing industry. “We stepped into this space globally two years ago, but we haven’t actively pushed it in India or Asia-Pacific yet,” adds Mr Mangesh. The introduction of high-durability wide-web composite sleeves, such as the HD sleeves, represents a breakthrough in lightweight and long-lasting solutions for printers.
Shaping the Future of Printing
With its continued investment in technology, innovation, and customer-centric solutions, Apex International remains a trusted partner for the printing industry. PrintPack India 2025 serves as a platform for Apex to showcase its forward-thinking approach, strengthening its presence across multiple printing segments and setting new industry standards.
For printers looking to elevate their operations with superior anilox technology, Apex’s latest offerings provide the perfect combination of innovation, efficiency, and long-term value.
