Sun Chemical will present its latest innovations in sustainable and compliant inks, coatings, and adhesives for the label and packaging sectors at Labelexpo Europe 2025, Fira Gran Via, Barcelona, Spain, from Sept. 16-19.
Visitors to Sun Chemical’s stand will discover a portfolio of print solutions that span analog and digital technologies, all engineered to meet the evolving performance, compliance, and sustainability demands of today’s label and packaging markets.
From advanced UV LED flexo systems to digital inkjet technologies, Sun Chemical will highlight how its innovations support efficient production, high-impact visuals and circular packaging workflows.
Sun Chemical will showcase an extensive portfolio of high-performance inks, coatings and adhesives, including UV, UV flexo, UV LED, water-based technologies and its electron beam (EB) systems for labels, sleeves and packaging.
Visitors to the booth can explore Sun Chemical’s portfolio of UV LED inks and coatings, including:
• SolarWave Integra: standard UV LED flexo inks
• SolarWave FSP: migration-compliant UV LED flexo inks
• SunWave LED coatings: available in gloss, stampable, matt, and migration-compliant grades
• SolarWave Panther: high-density blacks optimised for curing at high density
• SolarScreen Wave: a full range of standard UV LED screen inks
• SolarFlex FDW and Slalom: standard and food-compliant opaque whites for labels and sleeves, now optimised for UV LED
• SolarVerse: a system of pigmented bases and technology varnishes designed for special colour mixing of UV flexo inks in standard, compliant and UV LED profiles. The system offers significant advantages in simplification and sustainability.
Sustainability and compliance with rapidly advancing extended producer responsibility (EPR) legislation (e.g., Europe’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR)) remain a top priority for Sun Chemical. At Labelexpo 2025, the company will showcase a wide selection of solutions for labels and packaging that facilitate recycling.
Key developments include:
• Retention grade recyclable solution: SolarWave Integra UV LED ink combined with EV-LU029 coating.
• Washable/deinking solution: SolarFlex CRCL—compatible with recycling processes based on ink retention or deinking (US market).
• Electron Beam (EB) solutions: EB-curable inks and coatings tailored for mono-material and monolayer packaging structures.
In addition, Sun Chemical will introduce a new migration-compliant screen ink portfolio for labels, as well as a migration-compliant varnish, tactile varnish and SolarScreen Wave: a full range of standard UV LED screen inks.
“We’re proud to offer one of the most comprehensive portfolios for label and packaging printing across both analog and digital platforms,” says Jonathan Sexton, marketing director, narrow web and screen at Sun Chemical. “Our continued innovation in UV, UV LED, EB and digital ink technologies, combined with our strong sustainability focus and global support infrastructure, enables us to provide converters with tailored solutions that deliver performance, compliance and environmental responsibility. We are excited to see the continued adoption of digital solutions for label and packaging applications, which are playing a strong part in enabling the successful implementation of inkjet technology.”
