SCREEN Partners with manroland Benelux to Expand World-Leading CTP Solutions

Both parties are delighted with the new agreement and are look forward to a long-term cooperative relationship that will enable manroland Benelux to offer the full range of SCREEN CTP and printing workflow products, ensuring complete and thorough technical support to end users.

A Shared Legacy of Computer-to-Plate Innovation
As the world’s largest CTP manufacturer with well over 20,000 units installed globally under both our branding and through extensive OEM partnerships, we’re bringing decades of experience in pre-press technology and unmatched expertise in the graphic arts industry enabling us to support our customers with unparalleled credibility and reliability. This advantageous position makes a partnership through a trusted local partner in France and the Benelux an effective direction to bring these CTP solutions to new customers.

“manroland Benelux is a reputable business with nearly 25 years of experience with SCREEN’s CTP equipment through one of our OEM agreements. The developments in the market make this partnership the next logical step to further support and expand their installation base,” said Martijn van den Broek, Sales Manager Benelux of SCREEN Europe.

Werner Moriaux, Managing Director of manroland Benelux, adds, “We know SCREEN well, and this more direct relationship will only benefit the support our end customers receive. That we can now also offer EQUIOS PTR, a complete PDF workflow solution, with the latest version capable of directly controlling POD printers, is an additional bonus. Both manroland Benelux and SCREEN can trace their individual histories back more than 150 years, providing a proven model of stability, with their experience in the offset range and SCREEN’s state-of-the-art technology resulting in a great, new offering to the market.”

Boosting Graphic Arts Productivity and Precision
SCREEN’s CTP technology has also made tremendous strides in productivity over the past two decades. While early models produced only 12 B1 plates per hour, today’s CTP devices achieve over 70 B1 plates per hour – representing a productivity increase of nearly 600%. This consistent advancement keeps SCREEN at the forefront of CTP technology, helping customers maximise efficiency and output quality.

While SCREEN Europe’s CTP equipment is now sold through manroland Benelux, SCREEN will continue to sell and support the full Truepress range of high-end production inkjet systems for the label, commercial, and packaging markets directly from their headquarters in Aalsmeer, the Netherlands.
