By agreement between the printing companies and paper manufacturers in the last decade, we have developed many kinds of offset paper and paperboard of various quality - uncoated and coated with the contents of timber and without, matte and glossy, with engine smoothness, glance and embossed. They all seem to have surface stability (gluing-off), dimensional stability, and resistance to chemicals. (See Glossary)
Offset printing technology uses an intermediary agent to transfer the image onto paper. We use offset blankets that surrounds the cylinder. The basis of the principle of offset printing is immiscibility of oil and water. Printing plate keeps the paint not due to the fact that the reproducible image areas were raised (as in letterpress printing) or etched out(as in deep), but due to special handling, allowing to take the oil-based paint and repel water. Offset paper is used to print full-color brochures, booklets, calendars, posters, labels. In the production of offset paper used surface gluing-off - the application of a thin layer of gluing agents on the surface to provide high surface strength of paper.
