Quality dual purpose UV blanket

• Higher press speeds and longer blanket life expectations are normal requirements in today’s carton printing industry. In the past, the use of UV drying inks and a wide range of UV wash solvents from a variety of manufacturers has shortened blanket life due to swelling or embossing of the image areas. As a result, blanket changes and more critically, press downtime costs, make an already competitive business an even more difficult environment.
• Our technical experts have developed a new surface compound to resist the swelling effects of UV inks, whilst maintaining the capability to produce high quality print on a variety of substrates. With many printers running both UV and conventional ink systems, versatility was prescribed as an essential part of the development brief. The final surface compound will also give outstanding performance on conventional ink and wash systems, eliminating the need to use two different blanket types.
