FEATURED INSTALLATION
FlexoOne Inc., Salt Lake City, UT, has invested in two Nilpeter presses. "When it became apparent we needed to expand our press capacity, we researched for six months on which direction to go. It became apparent to us that the correct decision was Nilpeter for the effectiveness of their FB-Line including servo motors and auto-registration to name a few. Additionally, their customer support has been incredible to the point that we ended up buying both a seven-color and a four-color to serve our customers' needs better as well as expand our printing capabilities. Both presses provide the highest level of printing performance at every level; we could not be more pleased," said CEO Matt Sherry (right) with COO Scott Opfar.
