Printing Industry

The key to perfect results

The importance of correct humidity for the printing industry

Despite the digital age, paper remains an essential part of everyday life. Whether it’s newspapers, books, packaging materials, insulation, or banknotes, paper and printed materials require precise storage and processing. Improper humidity levels can result in material damage, loss of quality, and inefficiencies in production processes.

Static charge and its impact on printing

When relative humidity drops below 40% RH, electrostatic charge can build up, leading to errors as paper passes through the machines. In contrast, maintaining humidity levels between 50–55% RH increases the conductivity of both the air and materials, effectively eliminating electrostatic charges.

Eliminate Electrostatic Charge: Maintaining humidity at 50–55% RH increases air conductivity, preventing the buildup of electrostatic charges.

Increase Print Quality: Stable humidity at 60% RH and a temperature of 20–25 °C prevents paper misalignment and extends the lifespan of printing machines.

Reduce Dust: Increased humidity binds dust particles, causing them to settle and reducing contamination in printing processes.

Material Stability: Optimal humidity levels prevent paper deformation, shrinkage, and dimensional changes.

Perfect Printing Results

Modern printing systems—offset, digital, and web printing—require stable humidity levels for optimal performance. Without proper humidity control, dry air can cause:

  • Paper misalignment
  • Press downtime
  • Reduced equipment lifespan. Our precision humidification systems maintain consistent humidity, eliminating these issues and enhancing production efficiency.

Paper misalignment

Press downtime

Preventing dust ingress

Dry air increases dust levels, which can compromise print quality and damage machinery. Maintaining humidity between 45–55% RH helps bind dust particles to moisture, causing them to settle rather than circulate in the air. This not only keeps the environment cleaner but also reduces maintenance needs.

Precision Control: Ensures stable humidity levels for optimal printing conditions.

Energy Efficiency: Delivers high performance with lower operating costs compared to traditional systems.

Flexible Design: Easily adapts to the specific requirements of printing facilities.

Maintaining the right humidity level is crucial for print quality, efficient production, and the long-term reliability of printing equipment. Get in touch with us, and we’ll help you find the perfect solution for your needs!

Woodworking industry

Humidification for wood protection and quality

The importance of humidity control in the woodworking industry

Wood is a natural material that retains its properties even after processing. However, under improper storage and processing conditions—particularly at low humidity—wood can lose its internal moisture. This results in deformations, cracks, and a decline in the quality of the final product.

Hygroscopic properties of wood

Wood naturally responds to changes in air humidity. When relative humidity drops below 40% RH, it loses moisture, resulting in cell damage and surface cracks. The ideal moisture content for wood processing is between 9–12%, which corresponds to an air humidity level of 50–60% RH.

Wood Protection: Prevents warping, cracking, and dimensional changes during processing.

Stable Quality: Maintaining an ideal humidity level between 50-60% RH ensures a proper balance between wood and air.
