Masking Sheets

Masking sheets are indispensable tools in the offset printing process, used to selectively block areas of a plate or substrate where ink should not be applied. They provide precision, flexibility, and control, making them essential for producing clean and accurate prints, especially when dealing with multi-color or intricate designs.

• Precision and Accuracy: Masking sheets allow printers to mask off areas of a printing plate or surface, ensuring that ink is only applied to designated areas. This is particularly useful in multi-color printing, where precise control over ink application is critical.
• Customizable and Versatile: These sheets can be easily cut or shaped to fit specific areas, whether for large blocks or small, detailed sections. They are compatible with a variety of substrates and can be used on different types of plates.
• Durability: High-quality masking sheets are designed to withstand the pressures and solvents used during the printing process, ensuring that they remain intact throughout the job.
• Adhesion and Removal: Masking sheets are designed with just the right amount of adhesive to stay securely in place during printing, yet they are easy to remove afterward, leaving no residue on the plate or substrate.
• Application in Specialty Printing: Masking sheets are especially useful for specialty or custom jobs, such as spot varnishing, where only specific areas need to receive ink or coatings.
