CHARLOTTE, NC | tesa tape offers the Softprint range, a specialized assortment consisting of three individual foam hardness grades and two different adhesive systems to suit almost any flexo printing application.

Company says the Softprint plate mounting tape assortment offers a wide and balanced range of hardnesses, from the softest foam for the finest screens while reducing press bouncing stripes, to the hardest foam for solids while avoiding pinholing and delivering a perfect solid area density.

Both ranges offer optimized adhesion to the cylinder side, ensuring easy tape mounting and repositioning as well as clean removal without leaving residues.
