INX International Ink Co. will use ExpoPrint 2026 to demonstrate how sustainable packaging inks and advanced coating technologies are evolving to support circular packaging initiatives without sacrificing pressroom performance.

At Booth B-8-100 during the March 24–28 exhibition at Expo Center Norte in São Paulo, Brazil, INX will present a portfolio of nitrocellulose-free laminating inks, flexographic and rotogravure ink systems, recyclable barrier coatings, and water-based technologies engineered for converters navigating increasingly complex production and compliance requirements.

“Converters are balancing regulatory compliance, recyclability targets, and productivity demands all at once,” said Carlos Cunha, National Sales Manager of Liquid Inks for INX do Brasil. “At ExpoPrint, we want to demonstrate how our sustainable packaging ink systems are designed for real-world press conditions while helping customers anticipate where the market is heading.”

Nitrocellulose-Free Ink Systems

A central focus of the INX exhibit will be its expanding portfolio of nitrocellulose-free (NCF) laminating inks.

INX will highlight Innova Plus NCF, a nitrocellulose-free flexographic laminating ink designed for adhesive laminate structures, and Lamiall Sigma NCF, a nitrocellulose-free rotogravure laminating ink system engineered for consistent press stability and bond strength. Belle Flora NCF will also be featured as a high-performance laminating ink platform.

In addition to next-generation systems, INX will showcase established solvent-based laminating platforms such as Innova Plus, Synergy, and Belle Color. These flexographic and rotogravure ink systems remain widely used throughout South America due to their high tinting strength and ability to run at elevated press speeds with reduced ink film weights. 

Integrated Technologies

INX will present Ecostage GB-XA, a transparent, chlorine- and metal-free oxygen barrier coating developed for polyester and polyolefin films. 

Ecostage is designed to support recyclable packaging applications while contributing to circular packaging objectives across flexible formats.

As brand owners increasingly pursue mono-material packaging structures to improve recyclability, barrier coatings play a critical role in balancing material simplification with food safety and shelf-life performance.

Also featured will be Aquamax, a recyclable water-based ink system recognized for strong resolubility properties that help reduce anilox clogging and improve pressroom efficiency.

INX will also further reinforce its cross-platform expertise with INXJet digital ink technologies and its global metal decorating ink portfolio, underscoring the company’s broader strategy of innovating beyond traditional ink categories into advanced materials and integrated print solutions.
