About Us

Since 1994 we have continued to develop our fundamental understanding and expertise in screen, flexographic, offset gravure, rotogravure, digital and pad printing. We also have experience in the modelling of the print process, using techniques such as finite element, finite difference and statistical and neural networks.  

Our comprehensive laboratories are fully equipped for sample analysis and characterization of material properties relevant to the print process. In addition our Centre has access to the extensive facilities within Swansea University. 

To supplement the comprehensive laboratory facilities and extend our services we have installed roll to roll flexographic, sheet fed lithographic, pad press, ink jet and screen printing equipment, for use in fundamental research, industrial prototyping and materials development For personal development, education and research, information developed for short courses and higher education can be accessed via the dedicated Technology Group and conferences
