Brand NEW PINK– Redefines creasing with unrivalled durability

27 May 2014


21st May - Press Release

C&T Matrix announces the launch of a brand new creasing matrix - PINK.

PINK is the result of years of R&D with engineers and materials scientists and has been tested in several markets for the past 12 months to perfect its characteristics. The key component of this new matrix is the material it is made from - ROSADIUM. This patented product gives unrivalled durability to the matrix and, for the first time, offers the market an alternative to counter plates in the form of creasing matrix. It is a specially-formulated composite which combines fibres, resin and other materials to make a uniquely durable and flexible matrix. This product is exclusive to C&T.

PINK's features give many benefits including:

  • - Highly suitable for long-run applications, in excess of 150,000 impressions.
  • - Extra strong tape, (20 x stronger than standard), gives better registration and a long life.
  • - Newly designed locators give improved alignment of creasing rule and less shoulder wear.
  • - A Sharp Chamfer improves the flow of the board over the matrix, giving fewer jams.
  • - PINK is easy to handle, making it easy to cut and work/chamfer with a knife during make ready.
  • - Unlike traditional pressboard material PINK is far more resilient to delamination

PINK is particularly suitable for thin-plate applications and can be removed and stored without the matrix falling from the plate. It is available in various heights and widths with an off-centred option. All sizes are supplied with strong tape but standard tapes can be specified. Bespoke sizes can also be manufactured to individual tailored needs.

Simon Shenton, Managing Director at C&T Matrix said, "One of the key characteristics of PINK® is its unequalled resilience with the number of impressions achievable in excess of 150,000. We have been testing this product discretely in independent tests, and have proved that PINK® is one of the most long-lasting systems available in the market today, making it ideal for box makers or anyone wanting a matrix with exceptional longevity."
