Epple at Packaging Innovations 2018: Strong Interest in Sustainable Packaging Inks

Epple presented for the first time with companies from the PrintCity Alliance in the middle of April at the Packaging Innovations fair in Warsaw. As a provider of packaging printing inks and with a strong presence in Poland thanks to its sales partner Grafikus, Epple can tick their trade fair appearance off as a successful one.
 
Epple Druckfarben AG is an ever-more frequent exhibitor at the European specialist printing fairs with its message “essence of passion.” The reasons for this are the continuous expansion of the in-house international sales structure as well as the technical marketing support of its sales partners.
 
Epple exhibited on the PrintCity stand in Warsaw at the Packaging Innovations fair. The members of the association showed their product portfolios for a variety of packaging applications: substrates and materials for finishing, food safety and brand protection. Among them were mutually developed and produced packaging print samples with high quality finishing.
 
With its portfolio of trail blazing packaging printing inks, Epple is one of the innovative players on the European packaging printing inks market. The environmentally friendly packaging printing inks focused on protecting users and consumers provides evidence of this.
 
“We were able to determine a growing interest in sustainable ink systems,” said Helmut Fröhlich, packaging product manager at Epple. “We have had intensive discussions with potential end customers who are actively seeking forward-looking sustainable solutions. The experts were above all looking for innovative packaging concepts like BoFood Organic, the ink system which is designed for harmless direct contact with foodstuffs and is therefore best suited for the inner side printing of foodstuff packaging.
 
“A new quality of consultancy is required in the field of sustainable printing systems,” added Fröhlich. “That is exactly what the renowned Polish company Grafikus can deliver, which is why they have been the exclusive partners for Epple in Poland for many years.”
 
The next trade fair highlights for Epple are not very far away: Epple Italia will be presenting at the new Italian specialist trade fair Print4All in Milan from May 29-June 1, 2018 and at the packaging trade fair FachPack in Nürnberg from Sept. 25-27, 2018.
