Print Cleaners

For the cleaning in the flexographic printing industry

NDS Eco Solutions manufactures a range of different solutions available for the cleaning in printing industry, particularly to clean anilox rollers in flexographic and lithographic printing.

Excellent Results

Our cleaners provide excellent results in ultrasonic baths, spraywash systems and manual cleaning, whilst eliminating the need to use hydrocarbon solvents which are dangerous to handle and polluting.

Work well on all types of ink

All of our aqueous cleaners work well on all types of ink – UV, LED, solvent and water based – and they are particularly effective on dried, or semi-dry inks which makes them ideal for use in sites where anilox rolls are taken off a press before cleaning later. Our knowledge of flexographic print has been built up over many years meaning we are the ideal partner to trust when it comes to print cleaning.
