Waterless Press Helps Environmental Programme
One of KBA's waterless Rapida 74G presses with keyless Gravuflow inking units is helping a Swiss printer achieve its integrated on-site conservation programme.
KBA was awarded an emission-tested certificate by the BGDP and the first Emission Reduced Waterless Offset certificate to be issued by the European Waterless Printing Association (EWPA) for the Rapida 74G.
The Rapida 74 G has now become the first waterless sheetfed offset press worldwide to attain this coveted certificate, said KBA.
All those people from KBA who were involved in the press's development and certification also received the EWPA's Innovation Award.
These latest accolades follow awards gained at Drupa 2000 when the Rapida 105 was the first sheetfed offset press worldwide to be awarded an emission tested environmental certificate.
The entire Rapida press range subsequently followed suit.
In order to achieve such an accreditation, all press emissions must remain below the lowest levels permitted by any state within the European Union (EU).
There are two key criteria to achieve such status.
Firstly, the press must support low-emission production and the manufacturer must enable the user to implement low-emission production in the pressroom. Request a free brochure from KBA ...
