The Original for cleaning in the printing industry

Pressed sponges, also known as swelling sponges, are pressed under high pressure and heat. This means that they offer specific advantages for further processing and application. On contact with liquids they swell up to their original size and have the same properties as un-pressed sponges from thereon. The liquid absorption factor of a pressed sponge is around 21 times that of its own weight. > to product request
