Need wood-grain engraved roll for printing on Ridged PVC, Flexo or Gravure

2006

I am somewhat familiar with the Gravure printing process and I am preparing to apply a process onto Vinyl Siding profiles that I have a patent on.

We have a used Gravure, and although it provides a professional looking end result, I would like to know if Flexo rubber engraved print roll would provide a like end result?

If so, where would I get such a roll engraved with a Wood Grain design. I do have a sample provided to me from Akzo Nobel when I visited their plant and of course it is outstanding. That was 5 years ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
