• Wide selection of tapes with multiple foam qualities and adhesive formulations
• Compatible with UV, solvent- and water-based inks
• Available in various foam hardnesses to suit the desired print image
• Color-coded products for immediate foam hardness identification
• Minimized plate lifting and controlled dot gain with residue-free demounting
• Best-in-class mounting and demounting with engineered acrylic adhesives
• Embossed liner for easy handling
• Increased sustainability with up to 50% less solvent in the adhesive coating process in the DuploFLEX 5 GRIP range

DuploFLEX CB
Solvent-free pure acrylic adhesive combined with high-quality closed-cell polymer foam delivers excellent performance and brilliant print images. Offers solutions for in-house lamination handling or pre-laminated compressible bases for corrugated post-printing workflows.

Your benefits

• Solution-oriented kit for post-print processes (in-house lamination or pre-laminated compressible base)
• New solvent-free pure acrylic adhesive formula: secure grip to the sleeve side and improved sustainability with up to 50% less solvent in the adhesive coating process
• PET film carrier extended on one side for easy handling of bases and quick fixing of edging strip
• Brilliant print image including flat-top-dot and surface screening technologies
• Available in various foam thicknesses and equipped with either a PET film carrier or self-adhesive on one side

FS 57 Splicing Tape
Double-sided splicing tape with a self-splittable carrier for flying splices of flexible material in converting processes such as flexo and rotogravure printing as well as laminating.

Your benefits

• High tack and good adhesion to low surface energy substrates
• Very good splitting/separation capability for smooth and safe roll change
• Tearable by hand for quick application
• Easy-release split liner
• Simple application – no need for complex tape patterns or multiple tapes

Plate Mounting Tapes — General Features
