Dugraf holds two workshops on high-performance blankets in Rio Grande do Sul
Last August, Dugraf held two workshops on high-performance blankets at two large companies in Rio Grande do Sul: Metalgráfica Renner, in Gravataí, and Brasilata, in Estrela.
Several presentations of the workshop were held in different shifts to meet the demands of various professionals in the offset metallographic printing and prepress segment. The events brought together 70 people, who took part in this valuable moment of technical debate on printing blankets.
We would like to thank the managers of Metalgráfica Renner (Mr. Adejair Kivel Gonçalves) and Brasilata Estrela (Mr. André Diehl) for the organization and infrastructure made available for the workshops. And also to the employees of these companies, who took part in the debates with excellent questions and accounts of their experiences.
Brazilian metal printing companies are continually seeking to improve their printing processes. In this area, high-performance blankets are playing an increasingly important role in achieving predictable, standardized and continuous results.
Here at Dugraf Group, we provide the technical information our customers need to achieve the maximum performance and lifespan of their blankets during the printing process.

In the printing industry, every detail makes a difference. Choosing the right blanket has a direct impact on productivity, print quality and the durability of machine components. Among the most common technical decisions is the debate between 3- or 4-ply blankets.
Dugraf, a reference in high-performance solutions for offset printing, brings to the discussion technical data and arguments that prove: the Duradot 628 3-ply blanket is a smart, efficient and safe choice - even compared to the traditional concept of 4-ply blankets.
