Kodak recently announced that it has reached a significant milestone: 1000 customers have adopted  Kodak Sonora Process Free Plates that remove the plate processing step completely without sacrificing the quality or productivity of traditional mainstream processed plates. Printing companies around the world have embraced the technology enthusiastically, leading to a rapid growth in the number of Sonora Plate customers in 2014. 

Kodak’s 1000th customer for Sonora Process Free Plates is Reynolds and Reynolds, an Ohio-based leading printer of forms for automobile dealerships. Reynolds and Reynolds also provide software and services that help dealerships manage business operations. 

‘We are seeing rapid growth in Kodak Sonora Plate adoption with customers energized about making the switch to process free,’ said Rich Rindo, general manager, worldwide graphics marketing, and vice president, Graphics, Entertainment & Commercial Film (GECF). ‘This 1000th customer milestone is further evidence that Kodak’s recent worldwide manufacturing investments are well timed and vital to ensuring our customers’ continued success with Sonora Process Free Plates.’
