Why Asahi Photoproducts?
More than 50 years flexographic expertise
Since 1973, Asahi Photoproducts has worked closely with printers around the world to develop flexographic plate technologies that improve print quality, process consistency and production efficiency.
CrystalCleanConnect: A Revolution in Flexography
Created through a partnership between Esko, Kongsberg and Asahi Photoproducts, this revolutionary advance in flexographic platemaking reduces production steps from 12 to 1 and operator handling time by 90%.
CleanPrint Technology
Unique to Asahi Photoproducts flexographic plates, CleanPrint plates deliver high quality print performance as a result of engineered photopolymer chemistry with a low surface energy resulting outstanding ink transfer and fewer press stops for plate cleaning.
A Plate Solution for Every Flexographic Need
Whether you are printing labels, flexible packaging, corrugated or paper, we have a plate solution for you, ranging from our AWP™ water-washable plates to our more traditional AFP™ and APR™ flexo plates. Use our industry-leading plate processors or simply drop plates into your existing platemaking process.
“The installation of the CrystalCleanConnect has added to our overall quality and productivity, getting plates to press much faster, with less operator engagement time and with less opportunity for error. Now, we are converting all of our flexographic plates to Asahi AWP™ water-washable CleanPrint plates.”
Flexo Division Manager, Nabe Process Co., Ltd.
"As the need for package printing that is in harmony with the environment increases day by day, the acquisition of our Asahi AWP™ water-wash platemaking system, positions us to deliver the highest quality products with even more reliability."
CEO of Kindai Bijyutsu Co., Ltd.
“Transitioning to Asahi’s AWP™ CleanPrint water washable plates was the ideal solution for meeting the growing customer needs. A key benefit of the CleanPrint technology is the fact that it reduces platemaking time to less than an hour.”
