Laminate curling when the face is over printed with water based ink, in water flexo for example

Cause

External dampness (water in the ink) and drying easily causes curling in the cross direction.

Action

-Raflatac recommends that you use ready pulp-dyed papers like a Jetgreen, Jetred, Jetblue, and Jetlemon. -Raster-type print gives better flay flat properties, because small holes allow water to escape from the fibres. -Please try to minimize the drying of the printed face -Please contact your ink supplier for more suitable ink for this kind of product.
