Xeikon to debut print protector in January 2005

Xeikon will launch a new print protector application for its digital presses in the New Year.

The protector will be available as an online or offline process. It coats the printed surface with a silicon layer which is anti-static, puts moisture back into the paper and makes it scuff resistant.

 

Importantly, it also improves handling during finishing but does not change the appearance of the print.
