What Eaglewood Technologies does

Eaglewood Technologies LLC is a Minneapolis-based, privately held manufacturer and service provider of cleaning solutions for the flexographic printing industry. Founded in 2007, the company designs, sells, and services a portfolio of anilox roll cleaning systems spanning laser (Sitexco Plus, Sitexco Label L20, SL 1.5), ultrasonic (Alphasonics), in-press mechanical (Sanilox), and HP Indigo parts washing (Nanovis Bella DC-1300, HC-1000, US-500), complemented by the BFT Flexo automated CI drum washing system distributed in partnership with Italy's BFT Group. Its core technology centers on a patented Sitexco laser cleaning method operating inside Class 1 light-tight enclosures with integrated TBH filtration, which it positions as up to 20% faster than competing laser systems while producing no chemicals, water, or consumables.

The company monetizes through quote-based equipment sales (one-time/perpetual licenses), a mobile on-site XPress Anilox Cleaning Service performed by FTA FIRST-certified technicians, cleaning media and consumables, and equipment financing facilitation. GTM combines direct enterprise field sales (anchored by a Minneapolis demo center, regional technical sales managers, and ~10 major industry trade shows per year), the Anderson & Vreeland channel partnership, and the Nanovis and BFT Flexo distribution alliances. Eaglewood serves enterprise customers across five vertical-aligned segments—coating & laminating, narrow web, wide web, corrugated, and specialty—with named accounts including 3M, Amcor, Avery Dennison, Berry Global, Georgia Pacific, International Paper, Printpack, and WestRock. The company employs 11–50 people and has accumulated nearly 30,000 on-site roll cleanings through the XPress service, with one customer logging 21,000+ cleanings on a single Sitexco+ install since October 2021.
