PrintCare Offset Printing Blankets
PrintCare printing blankets are engineered with precision micro-ground surface finishing and closed-cell compressible layers. The blankets deliver exceptional halftone dot fidelity, minimal dot gain, fast sheet release, and superior smash resistance during paper jams.
The range includes universal sheetfed series PrintCare Azure Plus, Adventure, dedicated UV/LED-UV Hybrid series, and high-speed web blankets for commercial and packaging presses with extended service life.
Thicknesses 1.95 mm, 1.70 mm, 0.95 mm; custom barring for Heidelberg, Komori, KBA, Manroland, RMGT.
PrintCare Strip and Strip-Coat varnishing blankets are designed for full and spot application of water-based and UV coatings on dedicated coating towers. Built on dimensionally stable polyester bases, they are easily cut manually or via CAD cutting plotters with clean coating edges.
PrintCare U-Pack calibrated paper and Polyfoil self-adhesive underpacking foils ensure micron-level cylinder undercut adjustment without plastic deformation under pressure across long press runs.
Stripping blanket thickness 1.15–1.95 mm, calibrated moisture-resistant underpacking paper 0.05–0.50 mm.
Deutsche Druckfarben Printing Inks
Deutsche Druckfarben printing inks are manufactured to German formulations with multi-stage pigment milling. Inks deliver intense color saturation, high gloss, robust ink-water stability, and rapid setting on paper and board.
The range includes Multi Pro process series, Natura LM low-migration inks for food packaging, and Lumina UV/LED-UV series for commercial packaging printing with superior scratch resistance.
Process inks certified under ISO 12647-2, Pantone spot color blending, and metallic formulations.
Galaxy Pressroom Chemicals & Press Washes
Galaxy Chemicals are formulated and synthesized at AtéCé's chemical manufacturing facility in the Netherlands under Fogra standards.
The portfolio includes automated and manual Galaxy Washes (including high-flashpoint Wash-UV), Galaxy Fount SF buffering fountain solutions (Alco-Zero), CTP plate cleaners, and roller conditioning pastes for daily press maintenance and deep cleaning to preserve rubber roller elasticity.
Fogra-approved corrosion-inhibited washes, alcohol-reducing and alcohol-free fountain additives.
Galaxy Waterbased & UV Coatings
Galaxy Coatings are engineered for protective and decorative finishing of packaging, labels, and commercial print.
We supply water-based Galaxy Gloss, Galaxy Matt, grease- and moisture-resistant Galaxy Barrier coatings for food packaging, tactile Galaxy Soft-Touch coatings, and high-gloss UV lacquers for inline and offline coating applications on all paperboard substrates with flawless optical clarity.
Instant drying in IR/UV dryers, full compliance with food contact packaging standards.
Nova & Blackwood Offset CTP Plates
Nova and Blackwood offset CTP plates by AtéCé are manufactured from high-purity electrochemically grained and anodized aluminum. They provide razor-sharp dot reproduction (1–99% at 450 lpi, 20 µm FM stochastic screening) and high run length endurance.
Includes dual-layer Nova Aventus thermal plates and eco-friendly Nova Protinus DOP processless plates for direct-to-press workflows without chemistry.
830 nm thermal sensitivity, run lengths up to 200,000+ impressions, direct-on-press processless workflow.
Galaxy Automated Washcloth Rolls & Cassettes
Galaxy Washcloths are produced from high-tensile, lint-free polyester-cellulose non-woven fabrics. Engineered for maximum absorption of wash solvents and ink emulsions in minimal cylinder revolutions.
Available in Jumbo master rolls and ready-to-use mini-cassettes for Baldwin, Oxy-Dry, Heidelberg, Komori automatic blanket washing systems across all sheetfed formats with zero linting guarantee.
Lint-free high-tensile non-woven fabric, Jumbo rolls from 500m and pre-saturated cassettes.
Galaxy Pressroom Accessories & Supplies
Galaxy Supplies encompasses essential auxiliary consumables and hardware for the pressroom.
The program includes precision laser-profiled Ink Duct Foils for Heidelberg, Komori, Manroland segmented ink fountains, plant-based micro-granulated Galaxy Anti Set-Off powders, chamber doctor blades, and pressroom filtration media for continuous heavy-duty printing operations.
We supply precision-formed Ink Duct Foils for segmented ink fountains, plant-based Galaxy Anti Set-Off micro-powders in various micron grades, chamber doctor blades for coating units and flexo presses, automated washcloth rolls in Jumbo master rolls and cassettes, fountain filtration cartridges, and roller maintenance pastes.
Micro-Ground Surface Finish and Closed-Cell Compressive Layer of PrintCare Blankets
PrintCare printing blankets incorporate proprietary micro-ground surface finishing technology combined with a closed-cell compressive core layer. The engineered surface rubber compound provides exceptional resistance to harsh wash solvents, conventional inks, and aggressive UV monomers.
The multi-ply carcass effectively dampens hydraulic smash impacts during paper jams and misfeeds. Optimized surface micro-roughness delivers immediate sheet release (quick release) with ultra-sharp dot reproduction across fine halftone screens without slurring or ghosting.
Blankets recover swiftly from mechanical over-compression without permanent thickness loss.
Environmental Compliance and Low Migration Formulation of Deutsche Druckfarben Inks
Deutsche Druckfarben Natura LM offset inks are formulated specifically for folding carton packaging in the food, confectionery, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical sectors.
Manufactured from bio-renewable vegetable oils and carefully selected organic pigments, the formulation is 100% free from mineral oils, toxic heavy metals, and volatile organic compounds (VOC).
The cured ink film exhibits minimal vapor migration and zero residual odor, complying fully with European EuPIA guidelines, Swiss Ordinance, and ISO 12647-2 color standards. Inks feature excellent rub resistance and fast oxidative setting.
Buffering Capacity and Conductivity Stabilization with Galaxy Fount SF Concentrates
Galaxy Fount SF fountain solution additives engineered by AtéCé maintain stable ink-water balance on high-speed sheetfed and web offset presses. 2, preventing conductivity spikes even under hard water conditions.
The Fount Alco-Zero series enables printers to reduce or completely eliminate isopropanol (IPA) usage down to 0–3%, significantly improving pressroom environmental safety and reducing consumable costs while maintaining clean non-image areas.
The formulation prevents roller stripping and calcium buildup.
Streamlined Direct-on-Press Workflow with Nova Protinus DOP Processless CTP Plates
Nova Protinus DOP (Direct-on-Press) processless thermal CTP plates represent a major technological leap for sustainable offset prepress operations. Plates are imaged on standard 830 nm thermal CTP platesetters without requiring chemical processing, wash-out units, or gumming equipment.
Unexposed non-image coating is cleanly dissolved and removed directly on the printing press during the first few startup cylinder revolutions by fount and ink, eliminating chemical handling costs, hazardous waste disposal, water consumption, and processor maintenance.
Plates deliver run lengths exceeding 150,000 impressions with high FM screening resolution.
Precision Blanket Converting and Calibrated Pressroom Underpacking Solutions
AtéCé's state-of-the-art converting facility in Alkmaar is equipped with automated CNC cutting tables and pneumatic barring presses for custom blanket assembly. 02 mm, guaranteeing uniform blanket tension across the cylinder width.
Utilizing PrintCare U-Pack calibrated moisture-resistant packing paper and Polyfoil self-adhesive polyester foils eliminates packing creep and stabilizes impression pressure over long print runs.
