CITO CREASE Rubber creasing profile

CITO CREASE Rubber creasing profile – the optimum solution for creasing corrugated board with and against the flute

The CITO CREASE Rubber creasing profile is a specially developed profile designed to support the corrugated board creasing process with and against the flute.

The profile can be used for all types of flutes and all material thicknesses, without excessively crushing the material. It supports the creasing profile, for both 90° and for 180° folding.

Used directly on the creasing line, it ensures precise creasing, stops the cover liner from tearing and prevents skew gluing. The special geometry of the profile enables seamless interaction with the creasing matrix, ensuring optimum transfer of the creasing.

Comparison without and with CITO CREASE Rubber

An optimised LC variant is available for applications with laser crease flat and round tops. This version ensures the ideal distance between the crease line and the profile.

The unique design of the CITO CREASE Rubber creasing profile has been registered for a European patent.

Your benefits:

Perfect fit for attaching and transferring the creasing matrix
Ideal for creasing with and against the flute
Precise conversion for the downstream processes on packaging machines or folder gluers – without tearing and skew gluing
LC variant specifically available for use with round and flat top laser creases
Especially developed for cutting dies both for diemakers and corrugated board converters
Profile for perfect creases with creasing matrix
Simple visual quality control through colour-coding
Available as self-adhesive EasyFix version for exact positioning and residue-free removal of the ejection material
Certified as safe for the production of folding boxes for food packaging
- Conform with sections 3 and 17 of EC No. 1935/2004 for food contact materials

By conforming to EU Regulation No. 1935/2004 for food contact materials, Articles 3 and 17, CITO CREASE Rubber is safe for the production of folding cartons for food packaging.

The self-adhesive EasyFix version allows you to precisely position the ejection material on your cutting die, as well as residue-free removal of the rubbering. The surface of your cutting die remains undamaged. Use of activator sprays and superglues is avoided; this means improved safety in your company.
