Flame Treating
For pretreating polypropylene and polyethylene parts, we have the option of flame treating. Flame treating lowers the surface tension of the plastic to allow for proper ink adhesion. We have custom-built flame treating equipment for both flat parts such as polypropylene caps for CBD products and cylindrical polyethylene bottles for the health and beauty industries.
For pretreating polypropylene and polyethylene parts, we have the option of plasma treating. Plasma is a gas that has the capacity to conduct electricity.
To achieve proper ink adhesion, the printing or decorating surface must be free of all surface contaminates. Common surface contaminates are dust, mold release, and hand oils from parts being handled without gloves.
For both plastic and metal parts, post-treatment is sometimes required to achieve maximum ink adhesion. And for glass parts, post-treatment is almost always required for maximum ink adhesion.
