“Our newest how-to report is a useful resource to help print service providers maintain optimal production conditions, especially as the weather changes,” comments Jack Smith, Senior Vice President of Hop Industries. “Choosing the right plastic substrate is also important, and Hop-Syn’s minimal static-causing properties makes it one of the easiest to print.”
Not all Plastics are Created Equal
In addition to learning new ways to reduce static in the press room, the how-to report also compares print production speeds of different plastics; Hop-Syn customers are able to produce an average of 15% to 20% more impressions than alternate plastics. Hop-Syn customers also experience less static than alternative plastics because of its uniform gauge thickness and unique clay-filled polypropylene construction, which makes the surface more absorbent for quick drying.
