AccuFlex Packaging, a subsidiary of AccuLink in Greenville, North Carolina, has become the first flexible packaging printer to receive Color-Logic certification.
Parent company AccuLink was one of the first Color-Logic certified printers, the first US digital printer to offer Scodix digital finishing, and is now the first Color-Logic certified flexible packaging printer via AccuFlex Packaging, which recently completed Color-Logic test forms printed on its new HP Indigo 20000 digital press for flexible packaging.

Mark Geeves, director of sales and marketing at Color-Logic said, ‘AccuLink owner Tom O’Brien has always been on the cutting edge of digital printing. Two years ago, he approached us with his plans to enter the flexible packaging market and use Color-Logic to differentiate his printing for target brands. The test forms submitted by AccuFlex Packaging demonstrate the company can produce pouches and other flexible materials that really stand out from the competition.’
Tim Mages, president at AccuFlex Packaging, commented, ‘The eye-popping graphics that the HP Indigo press prints, together with the unique Color-Logic software and our coating/laminating, slitting and finishing equipment, put AccuFlex Packaging on the cutting edge of flexible packaging today.’
Mr Geeves continued, ‘Licensed Color-Logic printers around the world provide brands with the capability to differentiate their printed packaging, labels, direct mail, point-of-purchase materials, signage, and now their flexible packaging. AccuFlex Packaging knows that metallics enhance the perceived value the product inside.’
