Bases
Eluminum Bases
For plastic backed plates we offer the "Eluminum" base, which is a precision ground, solid piece of high quality anodized aluminum. After the anodizing process, the base is laser etched with a ruled grid, making registering your plates a breeze. We laser etch our bases because laser etching is the most precise way to create a perfectly straight grid pattern, and it's permanent. Absolutely no printing chemicals or scrapers will remove the grid pattern, guaranteed. Bases can also be anodized in custom colors, please contact us for more details about custom anodized Eluminum bases. Bases come in both DEEP RELIEF and STANDARD thickness for using all photopolymer plate material.
