FORDIA UV-BLACK
Compressible Offset Printing Rubber Blanket
A UV-focused, Black-surface compressible blanket engineered for controlled ink transfer, stable press performance and dependable recovery in demanding sheet-fed production.

PRODUCT PROFILE
Designed for UV-focused offset production
FORDIA UV-BLACK combines an EPDM-based printing surface with a reinforced, compressible carcass. The surface is selected for resistance to the chemistry commonly used in UV and LED-UV ink systems, while the compressible layer absorbs short-duration pressure peaks and recovers after the nip. The result is a practical balance of image transfer, dimensional stability and press-side durability.
FORDIA UV-BLACK is intended primarily for sheet-fed applications, including commercial print, folding carton and label work. Metal decorating and selected synthetic substrates may also be suitable when the blanket gauge, packing, press configuration, ink/coating chemistry and wash program have been verified.
Features and production effects
| Construction feature | Primary effect | Customer / process benefit |
|---|---|---|
| EPDM-based ruby surface | UV-focused chemical resistance | Helps limit swelling and surface change when used with compatible UV inks, coatings and washes. |
| Engineered compressible layer | Controlled nip response | Cushions localized overload and supports more even contact across ordinary stock variation. |
| Resilient recovery | Improved smash resistance | Supports recovery from short-duration pressure events; severe or repeated impacts can still damage any blanket. |
| Fine, consistent surface finish | Clean image transfer | Supports solid density, screen uniformity and accurate dot reproduction when pressure is correctly set. |
| Reinforced low-stretch carcass | Stable mounting and register | Helps maintain gauge and tension through routine mounting and normal production conditions. |
| Balanced release characteristics | Reliable sheet travel | Supports clean transfer and release; actual behavior depends on substrate, tack, speed and press settings. |
Recommended application areas
SELECTION NOTE FORDIA UV-30 should be matched to the press model, cylinder undercut, required packing, blanket size, clamping system and wash chemistry before production release.
CONSTRUCTION
Multi-layer design with a compressible core
FORDIA UV-BLACK uses a multi-layer structure in which each layer performs a distinct role. The reference micrograph is illustrative: layer thicknesses are not to scale, and exact ply or bonding details may vary with the confirmed production specification.
Illustrative cross-section reference - not to scale.
| No. | Functional layer | Typical material | Role in print performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Printing surface | Ruby-red EPDM-based rubber | Receives and transfers the ink film; provides the primary chemical and surface-contact interface. |
| 2 | Top reinforcement | High-strength fabric / bonding ply | Supports surface uniformity and helps distribute load into the compressible structure. |
| 3 | Compressible layer | Controlled cellular elastomer | Compresses under nip load, cushions localized pressure peaks and recovers after impression. |
| 4 | Carcass and base | Reinforced fabric plies | Provides tensile strength, low elongation and stable mounting on the blanket cylinder. |
