| NuPro |
NuPro Technologies, Inc., a company specializing in processing chemistries and solvent reclamation equipment for flexographic printing. NuPro’s latest innovation with low-odor flexo plate processing chemistries is its development of formulae that produce lower emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to improve worker safety and reduce regulatory reporting requirements. Additionally, NuPro’s Cold Reclamation System (CRS) provides an effective alternative to vacuum distillation for solvent recycling. With regard to solvent recycling, the inherent hazards involved and the costs of equipment operation have typically restricted in-house distillation to the larger flexo platemaking trade shops, while smaller shops have historically relied on third party distillation services. With the safer and more efficient cold filtration technology utilized by the CRS, in house solvent recycling has become more cost effective for large shops and a very appealing option for small shops as well. |
