Site-visit Case Studies of Kongsberg Cutters

Design Force Re-board EskoArtwork Kongsberg Stockholm pablo

November, 2010

Although most people associate Dr Nicholas Hellmuth as "Mr FLAAR" in reality there are 20 people that work together with Nicholas. Pablo Martinez is one of these. Recently FLAAR was asked to inspect equipment in two separate printshops. Since Nicholas had to lecture in Costa Rica, Pablo was selected to undertake site-visit case studies of Kongsberg cutters in Sweden. Pablo has also done FLAAR Reports on other Kongsberg cutters and on Caldera RIP software. These reports will be out as soon as possible.

Honeycomb Sandwich Board

Pablo Martinez at Design Force

November, 2010

Pablo Martinez, Technical Writer, FLAAR Reports, was guest at DesignForce (Re-board) world headquarters in Sweden. We appreciate the hospitality of their president Kurt Aldén and Martin Carlshamre, Global Account Manager. Earlier, at several signage expos, Nicholas has discussed possible future projects with Timothy M. Bolton of Pregis at FESPA Mexico and then again at SGIA. FLAAR is considering undertaking evaluation of at least one brand of honeycomb sandwich board during 2011.

If you Subscribe to the FLAAR Trends reports you can learn in advance, what new products will appear this autumn. This subscription includes the Skype address, personal e-mail, and telephone of Nicholas so you, and your team, get fresh information every month.
