FlexSoft® U-Series Unsupported Compressible Foam Backing offer excellent performance benefits for improving Print Quality.
These materials are superior print grade urethane foam materials that are coated on 1 side with a pressure sensitive adhesive. This allows for the individual tradeshop or printer to attach foam to various carrier sheets such as Polyester, PVC and Tin. U-Series may be easily laminated, by hand or machine in any width or length to achieve the desired printing plate format. U Foams provide for flexibility in the manufacturing process.
Applications
- Attachment to polyester films
- Build up of Print Plate to meet Pitch Diameter Requirements
- Lamination to printing Plate to manufacture 1 Piece Plate Constructions
- Where High Line Screen Increased Print Enhancement and Color Gamut are expanded
- To Reduce Fluting occurrence in and on corrugated paper substrates
- Customer Preference to create necessary Plate Foam Combination
- Lamination Blanket or spot varnish application
