MPS accompanied the Dutch Royal House and Dutch minister of economic affairs in a recent trade mission to Japan and South Korea. While there, MPS confirmed four agreements for four flexo presses (two in Japan and two in South Korea), with official signing ceremonies.
The trade mission took place from October 27-31 in Japan and from November 2-4 in South Korea. It occurred in conjunction with an official state visit by King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima.
Dutch minister of economic affairs Henk Kamp led a signing ceremony for two MPS press orders placed by Toray Industries and T&K Toka. The orders were signed with pens in the official Dutch flag colors of red, white and blue, accompanied by a pen in the Dutch royal color of orange to recognize a “certificate of cooperation” between the three companies.
“It was truly a privilege and memorable experience to take part in such a prestigious trade mission, alongside the Dutch Royal House and Dutch minister of economic affairs,” says Erik Blomjous, MPS Regional Director for Asia Pacific. “MPS is honored to receive orders from four very reputable companies in Japan and South Korea, including Toray Industries, a leading name in the Japanese industry. This successful trade mission has further strengthened our presence in the Asian market.”
Toray Industries ordered an EF multi-substrate flexo press with the Automated Print Control (APC) advanced package for their factory in Okazaki-shi, Aichi Prefecture. Its first MPS press will be used for the development of photopolymer plates.
The advanced print pressure control combined with stable web tension in the EF Flexo Flagship prompted Toray’s purchase. MPS Japanese partner T&K Toka will install its new MPS press in the demo center of the company’s factory in Saitama Prefecture.
