NTR 101
Highly compressible blanket
The NTR 101 is a soft type highly compressible printing blanket, designed for modern metal decorating, for carton printing applications, and particularly suitable also for older type slower sheet fed presses, where mechanical tolerances require a more forgiving and soft blanket construction.
The NTR 101 benefit from the new production methods now used in the NOVURANIA plant utilizing a strongly reduced solvent quantity and a very environmental friendly production process.
The surface layer is a carefully chosen blend of compounding ingredients and polymers that features excellent print quality, aqueous and UV coating capabilities, and a certain degree of UV ink resistance for mixed ink applications, specially in metal decorating. Mechanically it exhibits excellent compression set and good rebound characteristics.
The carcass, with special long stapled cotton yarn, woven to our rigorous specifications provides good mechanical properties.
The NTR 101 is also available in STRIP version, which can be stripped inside the compressible layer for non repeat jobs, with a very deep stencil depth.
