BIRKAN Plastoprint
Plastic containers well printed
What makes this blanket so special is its unique 100% aromatic polyester-polyurethane construction, which gives it exceptional abrasion resistance and durability. The white printing surface enables fast make-ready times and accurate registration.
With its open-cell, highly compressible construction, Plastoprint accommodates uneven or irregular wall thicknesses: This is particularly important for conical or irregularly shaped containers, ribbed products or tubes. The blanket is suitable for a wide range of substrates such as PP, PS, EPS, HIPS, ABS, HDPE, LDPE or other plastics used in the production of pre-formed containers.
Plastoprint can be used for both UV- and IR-curing inks. Its good anti-static properties reduce the number of washes.
Note: Only wash-up solvents containing Ethyl acetate in combination with IPA and Cyclohexanol should be used to clean Plastoprint, avoid using acetone, MEK or trichloroehylene solvents. Alternatives for washing are any solvents containing petroleum ethers, white spirit or ethyl alcohol.
