Free Registration is NOW OPEN for the July 8, 2021 live digital event unveiling BFM’s Sirio S-Plus equipped with Apex anilox sleeves

Broadcasting live from BFM’s Solbiate Olona headquarters in Italy, the unique technological innovations of the Sirio S-Plus will be unveiled, including:

1. Consistently higher print quality;
2. Better workflow efficiency and productivity through easy and precision-register job changes;
3. Greater substrate flexibility thanks to the machine’s ability to process various types of polymeric or paper materials — including raw organic origin;
4. Compact footprint, ergonomic lay-out, and modern design.
   
   The Sirio S-Plus press is a 6/8-color “stack type” machine designed for packaging printing on different plastic materials but also suitable for paper materials — either in-line with the extruder, or from reel-to-reel.
