Canadian manufacturer of photopolymer plates?
Hi there,
I’m kind of sick of paying UPS a million dollars to ship in boxcar plates. Does anyone know of a canadian supplier/developer of photopolymer plates that work just as well as boxcars plates?
Canadians out there, who are you using to get your plates made. I’m desperate to not be tied to an american supplier but I need to know the plates are just as good as the boxcar ones.
Thanks :)

Just to quantify my griping about UPS - i ordered $116 dollars worth of plates the other day from boxcar and was charged $55 worth of brokerage and ‘extras’ as they like to call them. Obviously this is unacceptable.

I use KDS Graphics on Midwest in Scarborough the best I ever dealt with. They make poly plates mag dies for foil and embossing also brass cup dies for combination work. They can block up mag printing plates to .918 also. As far as being as good as boxcar I can’t say but I have not seen any better than KDS.
A bonus they are about 50 feet from Don Black Linecasting.
If you have any questions that I can help with my Email is on my website miconpress.com

When I order from Boxcar I ask for items to be shipped via United States Postal Service. It is cheap, fast, and there is usually no import tax.
