Product Description:

This fountain additive is dedicated to modern high-speed presses equipped with process automation and control systems and is well suited for perfecting units.It is designed to provide top performance with UV inks, metallic compositions and traditional mineral oil-, or vegetal oil-based ink.

The ink water balance is extraordinary stable and unfolds its excellence even under the mix of high printing speed, perfecting, sophisticated substrate material, UV curing and spot colour application. 

The low water uptake and thus best controlled ink split cares for minimum oscillation of colour density and dot gain that keeps the print image contrast at highest level and consistency of colour sheet by sheet.
