A Brazilian victory

Turate, 20th January 2008 – A label printed with S-Combat™ do Brasil 370mm machine is the winner of the 15th Premio Qualidade Flexo 2007, organised by the ABFLEXO/FTA, Brazilian Flexography Association in the “narrow web printing on reticulated paper” category. It was awarded on December 6th 2007 in Sao Paulo.

Since 1993 ABFLEXO/FTA has awarded national and international companies for their best performances in flexo printing. The Awards are decided by a jury of 100 flexo professionals.

The S-Combat™ “Fabricado no Brasil” project was launched by GIDUE in 2006 as a result of the co-operation with the Raeder of Petrópolis (RJ) company, which is responsible for manufacturing. The first machine was unveiled in May 2007 with sales rapidly going up since then. The S-Combat™ has been well known across the globe for almost a decade for its consistent and repeatable quality, simplicity of operation and excellence in quick change, with its Flower™ head, synonymous with print stability, reliability and durability.

The production in Brazil by GIDUE is to cover the demand in the area and offer a valid alternative to imports from Europe for the entire South American region.
