KBA Genius 52 UV Press Fuels Interest in Plastic and Lenticular Printing

At PRINT 09, KBA partnered with Pace Industries, a plastic extrusion manufacturer of traditional polyethylene, polypropylene and polystyrene to the graphic arts industry, to produce four different products on its new BIOGRAPH.ics compostable Agribase plastic using the KBA Genius 52 UV offset press. The four products–a sheet of loyalty cards, an Impressionist landscape painting, a map, and a whimsical big eyed frog–were printed at the KBA booth throughout the duration of the show in Chicago at McCormick Place to demonstrate that printing on plastic substrates can be environmentally-friendly too.
