Trelleborg Showcases High-Performance Printing Solutions at FESPA

Trelleborg will showcase its range of high-performance commercial, packaging and screen printing solutions at FESPA Global Print Expo, held in the Messe Berlin, Germany, 15-18 May 2018 on stand 4.1-D13. On stand, show attendees will get a first-hand look at the companies printing blankets for offset printing including Vulcan Folio, Vulcan Mytho and Vulcan Zenith used in commercial printing, Vulcan Pack UV used in packaging printing, and Vulcan Sunrise for UV applications. In addition, the company will be showcasing its complete range of squeegees consisting of Unitex® Ulon HP and Unitex® Marathon, which covers the full breadth of screen printing applications including printed electronics, graphics, textiles, glass, optical media, bottles and containers.  Alessandra Bungaro, Communications Manager at Trelleborg’s printing solutions operation, states: “At Trelleborg we have fifty years of experience of offset blankets and their impact on press performance. We will have samples of our Vulcan Mytho, the only rubber, neutral-feed, for heat-set applications and Vulcan Folio, the well-known blanket for sheet-fed presses. Both solutions have a history of being successfully used for printing a huge range of products, from books and catalogs to commercial leaflets and magazines. “We look forward to showcasing our range of unique customer solutions for offset printing applications, from well-established blankets as such Vulcan Mytho and Vulcan Folio to the recently introduced Vulcan Sunrise.” Vulcan Sunrise is a 1.96 mm blanket with a dedicated top compound and is specifically designed by Trelleborg for UV applications such as LE/HUV and LED UV. Providing all of the benefits of the Dynatech System e.g. excellent smash and edge mark resistance plus good vibration absorption, Vulcan Sunrise enables first class solids and halftone reproduction. The blanket is suitable for use with direct-drive , as the Dynatech carcass ensures even power consumption in the drives. Paul White, Marketing and Business Development Manager at Trelleborg’s applied technologies operation in Retford, England, states: “We are especially excited to be exhibiting at FESPA this year as we will be celebrating our 60-year anniversary of manufacturing products made of Vulkollan®, which is a high performing elastomer polyurethane material used in our Unitex® squeegee range. “We have exhibited at FESPA for many years as it provides a fantastic platform to demonstrate to attendees how our Unitex® range can improve screen printing processes by providing excellent print quality and accuracy, decreasing setup times and extending print runs and prolonging squeegee life.” Unitex® screen printing squeegees are available in a wide range of hardness levels, compounds, shapes and profiles worldwide, through Trelleborg’s experienced sales team and distributor partners.
