• Diazo-sensitised direct emulsion suitable for discharge, water-based and plastisol inks

• High solids: 42% after sensitising / 43.8% before sensitising for excellent coatability

• Fast exposure on appropriate UV-output systems, with tested exposure ranges across multiple mesh counts

Performance Advantages for Print Shops
CP Tex is built specifically for textile production, giving printers a balanced mix of:

• high stencil durability on long runs,
