Product Overview

  • Solvent Plate
  • Film
  • Solvent Based Ink
  • Analogue
A monolayer plate that consists of a light sensitive photopolymer layer bonded to a polyester film.

Benefits

  • Established all around plate for standard applications in flexible packaging
  • Also suitable for label printing and corrugated preprint
  • Suitable for all absorbent and non-absorbent substrates commonly used today
  • For printing of basic screens, solids and line work
  • Easy handling and robust in processing
  • Process reliability due to colour change during main exposure
  • Wide exposure latitude combined with short main exposure times
  • Economic due to long lifetime and durability
  • Resistant to ozone
  • High resistance to solvent based inks
  • Also suitable for use with water based inks, conditionally suitable with UV inks

Suitable equipment

The nyloflex® FAR can be processed with nyloflex® processing equipment and all similar devices.

Printing inks
