Royal DSM launched a new resin product, via the Skins family, to enable silky-feel design and packaging across a wider range of applications. Specifically, the new AgiSyn 248 resin, which is also known as Silky UV. The UV-curable resin for flexographic and screen overprint varnishes that delivers silk-feel properties.
 
The new AgiSyn 248 resin is an addition to the current silk-feel resins range, launched via the character Skins Silky. The low viscosity of this resins range makes it suited for use in flexographic printing or varnishing units. Skins Silky can be used on a range of papers, cardboards, and plastics.
 
Building on previously released water-based resins within the silk-feel range, AgiSyn 248 can be cured with ultraviolet technology, and enables the delivery of the silk-feel experience to a broader range of end-user applications. When combined with a matting agent, AgiSyn 248 creates a unique surface during cure.
