MAGIS P-L is a hybrid solvent flexo plate for label and flexibles print applications. Combined with MAGIS F 830 dry film lamination, MAGIS P-L achieves high-res reproduction at flat top dot level.
ECO3 plates deliver a flat-top dot with integrated screening patterns that enhance final print quality. They allow us to offer a higher-quality plate to our customers. After testing the technology, we knew this was essential to meeting our clients’ expectations.

Dot quality
When combined with MAGIS F dry film, the lamination process guarantees excellent flat top dot quality.
Excellent press performance
MAGIS P-L plates stand out for their remarkable accuracy, unwavering consistency and unparalleled on-press stability. Print quality and productivity go hand in hand.
Ease of use
MAGIS P-L plates provide a wide exposure latitude with short drying times for tight production schedules. High consistency, productivity and enhanced print quality define the value of the ECO3 plate technology. In addition, MAGIS P-L delivers excellent ink transfer in challenging flexo print applications and ensures the plate provides the best tonal range possible.
Versatile screening options
Thanks to their excellent 1:1 dot transfer capability, MAGIS P-L plates can be used with conventional ABS screening as well as ECO3's Sublima and SPIR@L screening. Stochastic screening is also supported.
