Toray presents
exciting benefits of waterless printing technology at XFair in Vienna
Waterless printing offers advantages for a broad array of
printing market segments
Toray Industries Inc., a leading manufacturer of waterless
CTP plates, announced that it will be showcasing products printed with
waterless technology at Xfair. Toray will be in stand B07 at the show which
takes place from 15-17 April 2015.
“We are excited to participate in Xfair, a local event for
print, publishing and media, and to be able to spend time with visitors from
the DACH region, Central and Eastern Europe,” said Mitsunori Hayashi, General
Manager of Sales and Marketing for the new Toray Graphics factory in the Czech
Republic. “We believe waterless UV printing technology, which has proved to be
effective in providing quality enhancements and cost savings on non-absorbent
substrates such as synthetic materials, brings significant added value to high
end commercial-, label- & packaging- printers as well Cold Set printers. At
the show, Toray experts will be available for one-on-one consultations,
explaining how implementing waterless printing in these segments can deliver
amazing results, including increased quality and reduced waste, while enabling
a safer working environment and broadening the range of applications that can
be produced.”
High quality,
environmentally friendly
Toray printing plates incorporate a silicone coating to
replace the dampening solution normally used in conventional offset printing.
This printing system not only enables an environmentally friendly operation by
eliminating harmful pressroom chemicals, but also improves productivity.
Waterless offset printing provides:
High resolution prints with higher contrast, greater color
gamut, better color consistency and less dot gain, resulting in brighter,
cleaner and sharper images.
Improved competitive positioning for printing companies by
expanding their product range and reducing costs.
The most environmentally friendly printing process
available, with no dampening solution chemicals and lower VOC emissions in the
pressroom. Printers and print buyers alike can differentiate their products
from others by using the butterfly logo which represents ecological printing.
“Visitors to the Toray stand will have a hands-on
opportunity to examine the quality of products printed with waterless
technology as compared to conventional printing techniques,” added Mr. Hayashi.
“This includes UV-cured prints, microprint security features, high resolution
images and packaging, as well as stunning prints on a broad range of substrates
that can be difficult to use with conventional water-based printing processes.
We welcome visitors to the Toray stand to learn about all of these
opportunities."
