03Reliable plate adhesion

Undisturbed print runs and high-quality results can only be achieved when plate edges don't lift during printing. Reliable adhesion is influenced by a number of factors, from the thickness or condition of plates to the manufacturing environment itself, from plate mounting processes to types of adhesives. Our experts will advise you on what considerations must be taken into account to create a reliable bond.
