CHOOSING THE PROPER CUSHION BOARD
Cushion Boards are made of polyurethane material and are designed to give cushion to your
products while they are being printed.
Cushion boards serve two main purposes. They keep the type and dies from penetrating your
product while at the same time allowing the type and dies to gain enough impression to give a crisp
clear imprint.
•
HARD CUSHION BOARDS: For printing one or two small lines of type and will
keep the type for penetrating your product.
•
MEDIUM CUSHION BOARDS: Used most often, these cushion boards are used for
one to four line printing of 18 point or smaller type styles that have medium to bold
lettering.
•
SOFT CUSHION BOARDS: Used when doing more then four lines of print or large
print areas that contain big bold lettering.
