Hydro-Dynamic Products is marketing what it claimed to be virtually indestructible press wipes, whilst offering to pick them up for correct disposal once they are soiled and discarded.

West Sussex (UK) consumables supplier Hydro-Dynamic Products is marketing what it claimed to be virtually indestructible press wipes, whilst offering to pick them up for correct disposal once they are soiled and discarded Hydro-Dynamic Products (HDP) said the lint-free wipes, designed for solvent or water removal, are suitable for cleaning plates, blankets and scanners and they can be used pre-press and post-press throughout print works and are tough enough to be used more than once

HDP sales manager Alistair Bradly said: "They won't tear and are virtually indestructible.

We believe they're probably the strongest disposable wipe in the world of print." However, the company emphasised that once they are soiled, the wipes are classed as hazardous waste and are subject to strict disposal regulations because it is now illegal to dump them in all-purpose waste skips.

HDP operates a collection service for soiled wipes and advises print companies to isolate them prior to collection for legal disposal.
