Sun Chemical will be present at Corrugated Week 2014, and plans to show a range of products designed to enhance customer graphics and improve pressroom efficiency.
“Corrugated printers are looking for solutions that enhance productivity, improve pressroom performance and help the final packaging pop off the shelf,” said Tony Renzi, Vice President of Product Management Packaging Inks, North American Inks, Sun Chemical. “Our range of solutions on display during Corrugated Week do just that. We can take corrugated printers from concept to consumer with design, pre-press, color management, ink, coatings, and plates.”
SunGraphics utilizes Esko HD software to print with an image quality of up to 4,000 PPI. Sun Chemical HD plates also create a uniform height printing surface between the screens and solids versus conventional digital plates. The system is designed to sharpen images, allowing for smooth screen transitions to zero, reduction or elimination of hard edge highlight screen breaks, and decreased dot gain while minimizing the fluting effect.
Sun Chemical will also discuss its SunVisto Advantage HS inks for the corrugated market. The company says they are designed to provide higher color strength for use with higher line aniloxes and eliminate the need for special GCMI color matches when added strength is required to hit GCMI color targets. The Advantage HS inks are also 40-50 percent stronger than conventional mid-grade GCMI inks.
Visitors can also see live demonstrations of Sun Chemical’s SunLase laser marking products, a coating that enables brand owners to add information to both secondary and primary packaging information after the filling and closure of the pack, whether for practical supply chain purposes or as a late stage packaging differentiator.
