“We aim at reducing alcohol from our production process, for technical and CSR reasons” declares Florian Marciniak, Process and Quality Director at Deja Link.
Nevertheless, many offset printers are still holding on to isopropanol. Frédéric Kocher, Head of Product Development Fountain Solution at hubergroup Print Solutions, explains this as follows: “As the printing behaviour is much more flexible, printing without isopropanol requires a lot of sensitivity and fine adjustment.”
When printers want to switch to alcohol-free printing, it is, however, helpful if they reduce the isopropanol content at first step by step, as this allows them to develop the necessary sensitivity. And this is also the approach Deja Link takes. Thereby, the company relies on hubergroup as its partner. Florian Marciniak says: “We have been working with hubergroup since 2011 and always received technical expertise when we needed it. That is why hubergroup is exactly the right partner for us in this process.”
