A unique mild acid fountain solution chemistry system designed specifically for managing print characteristics and performance on press. Concept 21 allows press operators to manufacture their own specific fountain solution on-site to meet specific press needs. Precision blending technology mixes proprietary, ultra-concentrated chemistry for concise dosing of the components into the press mix. The ADM is comprised of the gum and desensitizers to maintain a clean non-image area, while the STM is comprised of the wetting agents and solvents to keep water settings low and the water system clean..

A unique color management tool designed specifically for managing print characteristics on press. Concept 21 allows press operators to manufacture their own specific fountain solution on-site to meet specific press needs. Precision blending technology adapted from the pharmaceutical industry blends proprietary, ultra-concentrated chemistry for concise color management in the pressroom. Concept 21 allows printers to handle a wide range of conditions: differing presses, papers, inks, plates and water. Solves problems such as: ? Feedback ? Piling (Ink and Paper) ? Plate Sensitivity ? Roller Stripping ? Flashing ? Poor ink & water balance ? Dot gain and more, by the use of a single system which can adjust chemistry to meet multiple conditions. Concept 21 is not a “one size fits all” product, but a system that allows you the versatility to replicate virtually any fountain solution on the market, on press, without bringing in new chemistry.
