Flint Group Creates New Coldset Fountain Solutions Technology

Flint Group scientists have just launched enhanced Varn Newsline fountain solutions based on newly developed proprietary technology.

New to the line-up is Varn Newsline 550 fountain solution. It provides superb cleaning and protection of the non-image areas of the plates and blankets. Hour after hour, even under the
lowest-possible water settings, Newsline 550 keeps the press running clean and yields significantly better print quality compared to other coldset founts.

“This exclusive design can limit the total cost of print,” said John Fatigato, director of technology, Chemical Products Division.

Fatigato said that Varn Newsline 550 fount helps printers come up to color faster with less fountain solution, less waste and less time. The superior clean also helps limit downtime dedicated to cleaning, and the anti-corrosive formula helps to decrease maintenance needs.

Also benefiting from the new technology is Varn Newsline 435NT, which now has OEM approval plus powerful cleaning that matches the Newsline 550 fount.
