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 one 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.
