Higher Quality

Our range of highly refined micro structured carbon, stainless, and coated steel doctor blades are developed to perform better and to meet the specific needs of your flexo / roto printing and coating applications.

Precise Dimensions

Our custom engineered doctor blade converting and finishing equipment holds tighter dimensional tolerances on blades for width, length, thickness, and tip execution, reliably, batch after batch, year after year.

Improved Metering

Our high density materials are more rigid and less flexing. They are able to maintain smaller contact areas at lower friction levels. The result – a cleaner wipe for longer periods.
