Application and Description

Aquamarine CARAT has been specially developed for packaging and metal printing, but is also ideal for all other kinds of printed materials using the sheet-fed offset process.
Aquamarine CARAT is distinguished by a carcass design which reduces elongation and sinking to a minimum.
Aquamarine CARAT is known for its exceptionally long service life. This is guaranteed by its very high smash resistance combined with high resistance to cutting edges.
