Trelleborg Demonstrates Can Printing Innovations at Asia CanTech

Solutions for can printing at the Technical Conference and Exhibition at Asia CanTech 2014 in Bangkok, Thailand, from October 27 to 29

Trelleborg Coated Systems printing solutions operation, leading manufacturer and supplier of printing blankets, demonstrates its latest innovative products for can printing at the Technical Conference and Exhibition at Asia CanTech 2014 in Bangkok, Thailand, from October 27 to 29.

Recently added to Trelleborg’s printing blanket portfolio for cans in the Asia-Pacific region are two products for three-piece can printing. The Vulcan® Pack-UV is suitable for multicolor presses using UV and non-UV inks while the Vulcan® Deco is designed for two-color jobs on single presses. Both Vulcan® blankets offer excellent print quality for halftone reproduction and resistance against edge marking.

Marco Carlini, Regional Sales Director for Trelleborg Coated Systems printing solutions operation, says: “Thanks to our 50 years of experience in manufacturing printing blankets for offset machines, Trelleborg Coated Systems is able to offer a consistent and wide range of blankets specifically designed for metal printing. These give outstanding performance in can printing.”

Trelleborg is also introducing its new Printec® brand of blankets at Asia CanTech. These utilize many of the technological advancements developed for commercial printing jobs, to give additional durability and the highest printing quality on metal packaging.

Among the Printec® offering, Style 263, is a blanket that is well known globally for beverage can printing. It provides a uniform gauge and adhesive consistency, giving longevity on the press and the excellent print quality required by end users.

The Asia CanTech conference and exhibition brings together global suppliers and can makers and fillers from across Asia. No other event offers the same opportunity to maximize the exchange of ideas between suppliers, can makers and fillers in the region.
