UV Flexo 
Renewable Inks

WILLSTATT, Germany—Flint Group's BioCure F™ has been introduced globally in response to market demands for an ink system developed with bio-renewable raw materials that also maintain key properties of other state-of-the-art UV Flexo ink systems.

"We have been asked by leading converters, who in turn have been asked by consumer product companies, to develop a UV Flexo ink that rivals robust UV Flexo technology but that is also developed with bio-renewable materials," says Tom Hammer, product manager Flint Group Narrow Web. "We feel that BioCure F shows Flint Group's ongoing commitment to develop greener, more sustainable products to help support the market's environmental requirements."
