SilverMaster®

Mitsubishi has been a leader in Direct-to-Plate technology for more than 30 years.

The Direct-to-Plate process eliminates conventional intermediate steps such as film imaging and processing, stripping and plate burning, saving time, labor and equipment expenses. Mitsubishi's SilverMaster® plate materials were introduced into North America in 1975 and have been the industry standard ever since. SilverMaster® plate materials are Direct-to-Plate analog materials for production of first-generation printing plate directly from paste-up boards, eliminating the costly steps of conventional plate making. SilverMaster® is compatible with most camera platemakers in use today and available in paper and polyester bases for up to 25,000 impressions.
