Flint Group Flexible Packaging EMEA has launched PluriTech SLU, a universal shrink sleeve system. This technology has been developed to be used in conjunction with Flint Group’s standard NitroBase WZ61 concentrates suitable for rotogravure applications.
Many converters producing shrink sleeves are printing on a variety of different substrates, which require multiple ink systems of different chemistry.
“PluriTech SLU offers a technology that covers the majority of commonly used substrates such as polyester, polypropylene and PVC,” said Thomas Strohe, commercial product director flexible packaging EMEA. “By backing with the corresponding white it is even suitable for sleeves with maximum product resistance.”
PluriTech SLU offers converters simplified ink specifications, reduced inventories and press returns. Thanks to the avoidance of changing ink series chemistry, set up times will be significantly reduced as time consuming cleaning cycles will be obsolete.
