Plasma Treatment of polypropylene toothbrushes enables printing.

Printex is a leading manufacturer of pad printing equipment for a range of industries including the medical device field. Quite often their customers need to print on surfaces that have inherently low surface energy. To make inks bond with these surfaces Printex will either integrate a plasma treatment system into their pad printer or they’ll reccommend a plasma treatment system be installed prior to printing.

Take for example polypropylene toothbrushes. You’ll see they often have your dentist’s name printed on them. That wouldn’t be possible without plasma treatment integrated with a pad printer.
