Fasson® MaxFlexTM Bright Silver FSC®/C2500/40#CK
Spec# 53355 - revised 02/01/2018
Facestock:
Fasson® 56# MaxFlex™ Bright Silver  FSC® features a premium metallized finish and an acrylic topcoat. Its surface provides good printability by UV flexographic, UV Inkjet (UVIJ), UV letterpress, solvent, and water-based flexo inks. This facestock has been qualified on the Domino N610i, Durst Tau® 330, EFI Jetrion® 4900, and 4950LX. Additional product constructions utilizing the same facestock are available. Fasson® 56# MaxFlex™ Bright Silver provides an ideal print surface for wine, spirits, craft beer, and other high-end beverages, as well as gourmet foods. Use caution when applying inks out to the edge of the label, particularly UV cured inks and varnishes. High shrinkage coatings can cause labels to lift off the liner or substrate. The FSC® certification ensures that products come from well managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. The FSC® chain of custody certification verifies that FSC® certified material is identified or kept segregated from non-certified or non-controlled material through this chain.

In-house testing is always recommended prior to final ink selection. Since qualification is subjective, evaluation and customer perception might differ. As label designs vary, we encourage end application testing of all materials.
