We are pleased to reveal our new logo along with redesigned website. Our original logo had been with us since 1992 and was beginning to show it’s age. It was time for a new logo with a clean, modern look to lead us on in the 21st century. We hope you like our new look along with the modern design and easy navigation of our new site.

This week we have taken delivery of another imaging device, the Xeikon ThermoFlexX 48. Xeikon International, has a long lasting reputation of manufacturing high quality Computer to Plate equipment. Their ThermoFlexX imagers provide high-resolution plate exposure combined with flexibility and productivity (the fact the device matches our new corporate colours is just an added bonus).

With a maximum plate size of 900 x 1200mm the ThermoFlexX 48 is ideally suited for the label and flexible packaging markets. We have upgraded the optics to 5080dpi which means that all of our digital imagers are now capable of producing HD plates.

Phoenix have now installed a new email and file server helping to centralise all our data and give a uniform approach to email. All our email addresses now end with our domain of “@phoenixprintingplates.co.uk” but any emails sent to our old email accounts will still be received.
