Flexo Solutions Highlighted at INFO*FLEX 2013

Developed for high-speed, wide web flexo presses of bread bags and frozen food packaging, Sun Chemical’s SunSpectro Sunsharp solvent-based inks are high gloss, resistant to water, fats and oils, and formulated for low odor and low viscosity for enhanced color strength.

Alternatively, developed for flexographic printing on polyethylene film, SunSpectro Sunsharp HR solvent-based inks provide moderate heat resistance of up to 350 degrees, maintain excellent gloss and are suitable for use with conventional and high-performance printing plates. Its clean printing and water resistance make it an ideal choice for printing on items such as plastic bags, shampoo bottles and milk containers.

During the show, on Monday, April 29, at 2:55 p.m. in the INFO*FLEX theater, Jim Felsberg, a field marketing manager at Sun Chemical, will discuss the advantages of the SunSpectro Sunsharp inks and discuss techniques converters can use to avoid defects in high-speed printing.

Sun Chemical will also highlight SunVisto Hydroking PHS water-based inks. Formulated to match GCMI X color standards, SunVisto Hydroking PHS water-based inks are PH stable with excellent coverage and mileage. The low-VOC inks meet the requirements of the Coalition of Northeastern Governors (CONEG) and provide consistent viscosity with excellent press stability.
