Printing

In the commercial and newspaper printing industries, offset, gravure, letter and silk-screen presses share two common needs. They all use inks, and they all must be cleaned on a regular basis.

Fine Organics Corporation provides environmentally safer cleaners and blanket and roller washes. These cleaners quickly and effectively remove all types of inks and soils from the press, including highly tenacious carbon black and multi-color inks, heavy grease, extensive paper dust build-up, and numerous other contaminants. You can also use them as economical all-purpose cleaners for just about any pressroom surface or equipment, including painted and unpainted press housings, floors, walls, ink kits and canisters.

In addition, we have a line of specialty cleaners to remove pigments, dyes, and other colorants from mixing equipment, mills, floors, walls and virtually any area in the plant.

As recent participants in the EPA “Design for the Environment” (DFE) program, Fine Organics participated in replacing several hazardous commercial printing solvents and cleaners with our environmentally correct products. You'll find them categorized in the 1997 EPA text, “Cleaner Technologies Substitutes Assessment: Lithographic Blanket Washes”.
