The Chromaline Corporation manufactures a wide variety of stencil making products, designed to help you get the results you need. Choose from our wide selection of emulsion, film and screen chemical products. Direct Emulsions Direct emulsions make durable stencils because both the upper and lower surfaces of the screen are coated. However, the emulsion conforms to the mesh as it shrinks during drying, producing an uneven surface.
Films routinely deliver better print quality than emulsion.
With films, the flatness on the lower surface of the screen assures excellent print fidelity. However, capillary or indirect films have only adequate durability because the upper surface of the mesh is not coated. Capillary films are more durable than indirect films because they penetrate more deeply into the mesh. The film, bonded to the print surface of the mesh by emulsion, keeps the print surface flat for excellent fidelity, like capillary and indirect film methods. Screen Preparation Chemicals Chromaline Screen Preparation Chemicals specially formulated for consistent results to maximize stencil performance.
