Sidewall printing blanket
Our product is used worldwide, every day on a wide variety of sidewall printers, including Van Dam, Polytype, Kase, Desco, Moss, Omso as well as on machines now manufactured in India and the P.R China.
Thin-walled packaging
The unique construction of 100% aromatic polyester polyurethane means plastoprint® is a highly abrasion-resistant, long-life blanket. The white printing surface of our printing blanket enables fast make ready times and accurate registration. With an open-cell compressible construction the plastoprint® printing blanket accommodates uneven or irregular wall thicknesses sometimes associated with thermo-formed pots.
Benefits of using plastoprint® for pot and pail printing
-
The blanket is non-directional: it can be cut either way round thereby reducing wastage when converting.
-
Good anti-static properties: less need for wash-ups than with traditional rubber blankets.
-
Resistant to both UV- and IR-curing inks.
-
Plastoprint® is easily cleaned using Isopropylalcohol (IPA), though acetone, when used sparingly, is very effective.
