Capillex® CP – Controlled Profile Capillary Film

Product Overview

Capillex® CP is a controlled profile direct capillary stencil film designed for high-definition multi-colour and process printing applications. The film delivers a tightly controlled surface profile (Rz 2–3 µm), ensuring consistent ink transfer and reduced risk of stacking or skipping during high-precision printing.

Capillex® CP is particularly suited for fine mesh counts used in 4-colour process printing, where stencil surface smoothness and ink control are critical for accurate colour reproduction.
