Formed in 2019, the new company adopts a “sell on technology” principle. “We want to democratize high-quality pre-press for packaging, because too many smaller brands think it’s only for the bigger players. We aim to make it available to every brand at a pricepoint that’s right for them. That will benefit everyone, elevating the industry through a better understanding of technology,” said Nikhil Puntambekar, director of Nuflex Graphics.
