The process of varnish coating in flexo printing involves applying a transparent layer of silicon over a printed area. In order to highlight a specific area of a design – such as a … » read more «
One of two critical components in optimized substrate wetting is surface tension (the other being surface energy). Tension is what enables moving liquids to form a spherical shape as if they are surrounded by a tensile elastic membrane. … » read more «
Printing with flexographic technology involves directly applying ink to a printing plate, which is then transferred to the substrate. The printing plate is made of a layer of rubber that has been cured or hardened to the correct thickness. The … » read more «
When it comes to flexographic printing, the characteristics of the ink are paramount for achieving high-quality prints and maximising the speed of the press. Among the various types of inks used, solvent-based inks dominate the field of flexographic printing. … » read more «
In the world of flexographic printing, the pivotal role of ink cannot be underestimated. Ink stands at the heart of the flexographic printing process, constituting a blend of resins, pigments, additives, and solvents. The selection of the right ink is … » read more «
A highly versatile and efficient printing process used in a wide range of industries, flexographic printing benefits significantly from the use of advanced inks whose formulations offer vibrant colours, durable finishes and compatibility with a wide range of substrates, including … » read more «
