Conventional Positive Printing Plate
NOVEL positive offset printing plates are researched & manufactured to meet todays demanding pressroom conditions. Produced on sophisticated continuous process line using only aluminum coils of the highest standard, our inspection system & online control technology guarantees the reliability & consistency of quality.
Adopting unique combination of advanced electrochemical graining, anodizing and coating technology enhance the performance of the plate. It can come up with excellent result on the printing machine with long run impression.
