· Press-room
chemistry
The correct application of
different press-room chemicals optimises press performance, minimises press wear
and lengthens the life of plates and blankets. The use of proper blanket washes
and revitalising agents produces better copies and prolongs the life of the
blanket. Correct and measured fount solutions improve press running and reduce
press corrosion.
The
HUNTERPRESS
range of press-room
chemistry had been substantially improved and developed during 2003 and this
work has continued in 2004. Much attention has been paid to getting the
profiles and characteristics of this range right and at the right prices.
