ROUGH TOUCH
BY JET TECHNOLOGIES
Jet Technology’s latest innovation is the textured matte film Rough Touch, which features a
unique rough, gritty feel. The highly versatile film provides a completely new touch and feel that
further meets consumer demands for luxury looks and sensations in products. “The new sandy
film is the biggest variation in film to hit the market since the hugely popular Soft Touch film,
which offers an ultra-matte silky feel laminate,” director Jack Malki says.“We expect that the
Rough Touch film will follow in the footsteps of Soft Touch and prove highly popular amongst
our customers who specialise in luxury printing and packaging. We see Rough Touch being a
really good fit for curious industries looking for a gritty feel - anything from building and beach
to coffee and culture.” With enhanced colour, extra protection for printed jobs through avoiding
scuffing and curling, the film is compatible with a range of finishes such as spot UV or hot
stamping, and can be glued and printed on. www.info.jet-ap.com/rough

Key Technology, a member of
the Duravant family of operating
companies, introduces its enhanced
FMAlert software for VERYX digital
sorters. FMAlert captures and saves
digital images of foreign material
(FM) contaminants, and can be
programmed to immediately alert
operators and signal a downstream
device during critical FM events.
Now, the next-generation FMAlert
annotates each image to pinpoint
the FM object detected and further
eases access to records. Coupled
with VERYX’s advanced detection
capabilities, FMAlert helps processors
control FM, speeds response to
FM events, recognise trends and
improves documentation to protect
food safety. “New food safety
regulations and consumers’ rising
expectations for product quality are
pushing processors to look at more
ways to ensure their product is free
from FM,” Key spokesperson Marco
Azzaretti says. “Equipping VERYX with
FMAlert is a powerful combination.
The sorter’s advanced Pixel Fusion
sensor technology finds smaller and
more subtle FM and defects, and it can
better identify specific FM types.”
