What it is

What it is

Inking rollers, ink transport rollers, components for offset and screen printing use PU for dimensional precision, ink resistance and durability. They compete with nitrile rubber and EPDM in specific applications.

The PU technology applied here is typically cast pu with high-precision finishing, selected for the combination of mechanical, chemical and processing properties suitable for the application. Specific formulations vary by equipment manufacturer or final integrator, but the base system has stable characteristics documented in technical literature and segment-specific standards.

Why it matters

Why it matters

For manufacturing industry and chemical processes, parts for graphic industry is a decision where continuous-operation failure cost is high. Unplanned downtime on automated lines costs thousands per hour; critical equipment failure in chemical plants can stop entire operations with direct supply contract impact.

Current drivers. Industry 4.0 and growing automation increase criticality of specific components — one seal failing in a robotized hydraulic press stops the entire shift. Reshoring and industrial expansion in emerging markets (including Brazil with New Industry Brazil program) create new demand. Industrial sustainability via durability (reducing part replacement) competes with ESG pressure for bio-based materials and recyclability — and modern PU systems offer responses in both directions.
