Offset Productions opts for PRESSMAX pressroom chemistry
Thursday 07. February 2008 - Fujifilm today announces that Kent-based printer, Offset Productions has invested in its PRESSMAX UV wash system.
Designed to improve press performance and efficiency, reduce costs and improve print quality. PRESSMAX is a comprehensive range of environmentally-friendly pressroom chemistry and press care products.
Offset Productions was established 30 years ago and employs 48 staff. The company carries out all procedures in-house including design, pre-press and finishing. Primarily a packaging and greeting cards printer, Offsets customers include Lings greetings cards.
Mark Jeavons, printing manager at Offset Productions, says: “We chose the PRESSMAX washes because, as well as being extremely cost effective, they feature corrosion protection additives to maximise productivity and offer higher cleaning efficiency. Because of this, they are not detrimental to the rubber rollers or printing plates we use, so causing no disruption to our normal way of working.”
PRESSMAX washes are compatible with conventional, UV and hybrid inks and are suitable for use in both manual and automatic cleaning devices. Fast-drying and low odour variants are also available.
Other products in the PRESSMAX range include founts and auxiliaries. PRESSMAX founts are available for heatset, sheet-fed and mini-web presses, in both reduced and alcohol-free versions. They support a variety of dampening systems and work with conventional, UV/hybrid or metal inks. PRESSMAX auxiliaries also include a comprehensive list of day-to-day and maintenance items, encompassing plate care, fount auxiliaries and cleaning products. All products within the PRESSMAX range are available now.
Pressroom audits and product trials are available from Fujifilm.
