TORAY WATERLESS PLATE

"TORAY WATERLESS PLATE" enables an offset printing system without dampening water. Although this dampening water is essential for a conventional offset printing system, it contains volatile organic compounds (VOC) and becomes a cause of air pollution or even health problem.
In stead of dampening water, the special silicone covering the surface of "TORAY WATERLESS PLATE" clearly separates image parts and non-image parts, which eventually reduces the VOC emission level.
