What's All the Buzz?

So really, what is it?

Knowing if UV or EB is the way to go, starts with knowing exactly what they are. There are some similarities, but many differences as well.

According to Rick Sanders, sales and marketing, Energy Sciences Inc., EB is prevalent in the conversion of food packaging, and it involves accelerated electrons passing through a foil window that penetrates the product or materials. The electrons cause the desired and almost instantaneous changes in the EB curing material. These changes typically result in better visual properties than water-based materials, and can provide enhanced shelf appeal, he says.
