Further details

In order to achieve optimal printing results, it is necessary to focus on quality already in the consumables and auxiliaries as well as the printing inks. The FograCert label ensures that the products meet the high standards required in daily printing practice. For fountain concentrates and washing agents, the approval is necessary in order to get on the approval lists of the press and washing unit manufacturers.

As preparation for a planned certification, we can also carry out partial tests for you and thus support you in your product development. This will help you to ensure that the extensive tests required to obtain the FograCert label are passed.
