XSYS, global supplier of flexo prepress solutions, has won the 2025 FPPA Excellence Award for a second year for the nyloflex eco series printing plates.
Founded to promote high standards in the flexo prepress industry, the FPPA recognizes and celebrates outstanding achievements in innovation, sustainability, and overall excellence with this annual award. Entries are evaluated on several judging criteria including demonstrating “efforts to reduce waste, energy consumption, and environmental impact, as well as the implementation of eco-friendly materials and processes.”
The new nyloflex eco series, specifically the nyloflex eco ACT D and nyloflex eco FAC D, have been developed for high-quality flexo printing on absorbent and non-absorbent substrates (paper, board, kraft liner, test liner, etc.) using water- and solvent-based inks. The plates are suited for a whole range of fiber-based packaging applications including folding carton and corrugated post-print.
The eco plate formulation features up to 29 percent bio-based raw materials, and nyloflex eco plates reportedly dry fast, saving processing time by 20 percent.
The award was presented during the FPPA’s annual conference, held on 23–25 February, in Tucson, Arizona. As a long-term member of the association, XSYS was also on the speaking agenda at the event. Dan Rosen presented a 2025 business update including a look at XSYS’ latest sustainability initiatives, from nyloflex eco plates to the latest ThermoFlexX Catena automated platemaking technology and renewable electricity usage.
In addition, Trey Beckman, Director of Strategic Global Accounts at MacDermid Graphic Solutions (MGS), provided insights into the recent creation of XSYS and MGS as one global company.
