Corrugated paper is rough. It also absorbs ink strongly, so printing may show weak solid colors, lost dots, worn plates, blocked areas, or dirty plate surfaces. Carton printing moves fast. In large orders for express cartons, shipping cartons, and outer boxes, the paper rubs against the plate again and again. This creates higher demands. The plate must have the right hardness, strong rebound, and good wear resistance.
STRONG offers SF-GT flexo plates for corrugated carton printing. With a high-hardness resin system, strong rebound, anti-stick performance, and a wear-resistant structure, SF-GT helps carton printers transfer ink more steadily on rough paper and reduce blocking, sticking, and coating damage during fast production.
Let's Talk
Rough paper keeps rubbing the plate. This tests the plate’s ability to resist wear during long and fast print runs. High-speed carton machines run nonstop. They can make blocked plates, dirty marks, and uneven ink transfer more serious. Carton designs often look simple. But large text, logos, barcodes, and solid graphics still need clear edges and steady ink under higher printing pressure.
Plate hardness matters. If the plate is too soft, dots may change shape and solid areas may look weak on rough paper. Rebound is also important. If the plate does not recover well or resist sticking, high-speed printing may cause blocking, dirty marks, more cleaning stops, and higher rework cost. STRONG SF-GT is made for carton work. It is suitable for express cartons, shipping cartons, transport packaging, outer boxes, and other corrugated paper printing jobs. It solves key production problems. These include ink transfer on rough paper, plate wear, blocking at high speed, and long-run printing stability.
STRONG SF-GT uses a high-hardness self-developed resin system. Its Shore A hardness can reach 70 to 80, making it better for rough printing materials such as corrugated paper. This higher hardness provides support. During printing, it helps the plate keep text, logos, barcodes, and large solid areas clearer and fuller on the carton surface.
STRONG SF-GT uses a strong rebound and anti-stick formula. After high-speed printing pressure, the plate can return to shape quickly and reduce the buildup of ink, paper dust, and dirt on the surface. This helps carton machines run better. For high-speed carton presses, it can lower the risk of blocked plates and dirty marks, making long nonstop printing smoother.
STRONG SF-GT improves plate surface strength. Its wear-resistant and scratch-resistant formula helps the plate handle rough corrugated paper during fast feeding and nonstop printing. The plate lasts longer. This makes it suitable for long runs of express cartons, shipping cartons, and outer packaging cartons. It helps customers save costs. With fewer plate changes, fewer stops, and less press resetting, carton printers can keep large orders moving more smoothly.
STRONG SF-GT flexo plates are made for corrugated carton printing. They are suitable for express cartons, shipping cartons, transport packaging, outer boxes, corrugated color boxes, and large carton printing orders. They support rough paper printing. They also meet needs such as high-speed anti-stick printing, wear resistance, scratch resistance, full solid colors, and long print runs.
