Ominta opens specialist anilox cleaner

Commercial cleaning group Ominta has formed a specialist anilox cleaning company, with chemicals and hardware including a FlexoWash FW 2500 supplied by Jet Technologies.

Ominta Anilox Cleaning Services is run by technical manager Clint Windsor, who previously worked with anilox rollers and sleeves at Laserlife. Windsor says it is the only dedicated anilox cleaner in Victoria, and possibly in Australia.

“At the moment we are cleaning the rollers. We need to fine tune the paperwork. We are a commercial and leisure cleaning company, and have taken up the role for Anilox cleaning. There is no one in Victoria that is a dedicated cleaner for anilox, we are possibly the only ones in Australia.

“We have a projected figure of 10 to 20 rollers per week.

“We purchased the machine through Jet, and ongoing we will be purchasing chemistry, and any parts that are needed down the track for the maintenance of the machine.

“I went through an extensive research to find what would be the best anilox cleaning process. I have experience with ultrasonic parts, I know that bicarb soda is messy and noisy, and that some other systems have the same issues.

“It is an enclosed chamber, it is easy to operate, effective, and not as noisy.

“It is versatile, we can put rollers in from a seven-inch Mark Andy, to a 2.2m roller.

“You press the button, walk away, and then you can get on with the paperwork, it is automatic.

“We are operational, for anyone looking at getting Aniloxes cleaned, we are not affiliated with manufacturers or companies, and will clean all anilox rollers from any company.

“They can have complete trust in our process and confidentiality.

“We can service anilox nationally too.”

Jet Technologies says, “We have strengthened their presence in Anilox cleaning in Melbourne with the recent installation of the FlexoWash FW 2500 at Ominta Anilox Cleaning Services. This company has expanded its already successful and rapidly growing commercial and leisure cleaning business with the addition of Anilox cleaning for the printing industry.

“We are excited to have Clint Windsor (technical manager) heading up the operation for Ominta, with such extensive trade cleaning knowledge, and his background with Anilox rollers/sleeves at Laserlife, his expertise is welcomed for local Anilox cleaning services.

“He had no hesitation in choosing FlexoWash technology to give Ominta Anilox Cleaning opportunity to provide a globally recognised brand and cleaning technology to the industry.

“We have no doubt that this new venture for Ominta will prove to be successful and all of the Jet family wish Clint and the Ominta team all the very best.”

Jet has recently expanded in Melbourne, adding an office to its ink facility, and hiring two new staff.
