WAN-IFRA_Specifications_Blankets
In order to have a higher degree of safety when changing blankets, also with a view to process standardisation in newspaper printing, it is essential that the composition of the blankets be known in advance and described in a way that makes it as comparable as possible.
For this reason, users initiated a working group with the objective in the long term to standardise the description of the properties of printing blankets.
Representatives of the press and blanket manufacturers, users and IFRA, under the leadership of bvdm, discussed blanket parameters from the point of view of their relevance to practice and agreed on the now available specifications for printing blankets.
