If you’ve ever tried printing on corrugated boxes with standard flexo plates, you already know the outcome. Uneven impressions. Lost detail. Waste. That’s not a design issue, it’s a plate problem. Flexo printing on corrugated substrates needs the right materials, the right softness, and the right mount. Otherwise, your output suffers.
That’s why corrugated printing plates from PlateCrafters aren’t just another option. They’re built specifically to handle the peaks and valleys of corrugation without crushing detail or compromising alignment. We don’t offer liquid polymer because we know it doesn’t hold up. Inconsistency isn’t something we accept.
Built for Corrugated, Not Adapted to It
Flexo printing on Corrugated Flexographic Printing Platesstock works differently. You’re not printing on smooth, flat material. You’re working with ridges, grooves, and a surface that pushes back. That’s why our sheet photopolymer plates are made soft enough to absorb that structure, yet firm enough to hold a clean impression.
You can get them loose at .250 thickness if you prefer to mount in-house. Or we can deliver them fully mounted, color-aligned, and press-ready. Our Harley mounters give us full control over precision, so your final prints stay sharp across every panel of the box.
Why PlateCrafters Plates Actually Perform
Let’s make this clear. We only manufacture sheet flexo plates because we care about consistency. Liquid polymer options might save you money in the short term, but they won’t give you the repeatability or performance your team needs. One run might work. The next one fails. That’s not how we do business.
Our quality guarantee and price match program speak for themselves. If you’re stuck with plates that crack, misalign, or fade under pressure, we’ll fix that. Give us the specs. We’ll match them. No extra jargon, no empty promises.
