The Reading-based consumables company will unveil Finito Dress designed to protect presses from stains and TruPoint Quick Wash, which the company claims cuts down on washing times.

Finito Dress, a self-adhesive film applied to the outside of printing presses, protects from ink and glue stains to keep the kit looking clean, according to the BFS. The thermoplastic film also protects from scratching and chemical damage, said head of sales Lewis Prince.

Meanwhile the company claims that TruPoint Quick Wash can cut wash-up times and solvent consumption by up to 50%. A custom-made aluminium clamp fits to the wash-up tray allowing a TruPoint DeltaFlex wash-up blade, which has a contact area for a more effective wash-up, to be fixed into position.

Two other recently unveiled products, Infinity Plus and Pre-impregnated Washcloths, will also be on show.

Prince said Infinity Plus, which had been supplied by the company for a few months, was the newest addition to the Rollin range of sheetfed blankets for commercial printing and packaging, with "good smash resistance for a variety of substrates".

Pre-impregnated Washcloths cleaned printing blankets and cylinders without the need for further chemicals, he said.

"The washcloths are suitable for sheet-fed, heat-set and cold-set presses using either conventional or UV inks. They come individually wrapped and sealed to prevent drying out before use."

Family firm BFS Pressroom Solutions said it made and distributed consumables that aimed to last longer and save printers’ money through improved productivity. It runs three factories, in Haverhill, Suffolk, Leighton Buzzard and Reading, Berkshire.
