Fujifilm to make plates in the Netherlands

Nov 23, 2005 1:20 PM

Fuji Photo Film (Valhalla, NY) has announced plans to build a second plate production line at the company’s Tilburg, Netherlands, plate manufacturing facility. The new plate line represents a $48 million investment.

With an expansion of the existing plate line earlier this year, the Tilburg plate manufacturing plant started production of Fujifilm’s Brillia LP-NV violet photopolymer CTP plate to supply thermal and photopolymer CTP plates to the European market. To match the rapidly increasing demand for both plate technologies, Fujifilm has decided to construct a new second plate line for added flexibility in the product mix. Tilburg’s second plate line is being built alongside the existing line, and will be dedicated to the production of offset CTP plates.

Fujifilm expects the Tilburg line to be operational in October 2006.
