Flora (B2-A60/70) has launched its 2.5m C25h Pro inkjet press to the European market at Fespa.

Running at 1,200sqm/hr in single-pass production, the press is targeted at high-volume packaging work at a competitive price point, and was first launched in Asia in 2021.

Capable of handling 1.35m-wide boards automatically, or 2.5m boards by hand, it can also run three or four-pass work at 400 and 300sqm/hr respectively, and has a maximum resolution of 600x1,200dpi.

With feeder and stacker, the Pro model with 12 Epson 4200 printheads will cost around €200,000.

Flora has also brought its Xtra 3220 LED flatbed, X20 UV hybrid, and R20 roll-to-roll wide-format printers to the show, which use a mixture of Epson and Konica printheads and have been upgraded since Flora’s last Fespa showing.
