Think Ink

It appears that water- and solvent-based ink usage continues at levels similar to recent years, with neither gaining significant share. We believe there is significant opportunity for energy-cured packaging printing, especially for the WetFlex™ process and UniQure™ inks that Sun Chemical has developed. WetFlex is a patented flexo printing process designed to significantly improve print quality and efficiency for flexible packaging and using UniQure™ inks that can be wet-trapped on a common impression (CI) cylinder press and cured instantly by an in-line electron beam at the end of the press.
