Sun Chemical will showcase its solutions for the narrow web, tag and label market at Label Summit Latin America 2016 on April 26-27 at the Hotel Las Americas Convention Center in Cartagena, Colombia.
“Sun Chemical Colombia is excited to continue meeting the label and narrow web needs of our customers in Latin America,” said Fernando Tavara, president, Sun Chemical Latin America. “Our customers are looking for solutions that drive productivity, reduce waste and meet brand owner requirements of shelf standout and color consistency. Drawing from our global resources and expertise, Sun Chemical will be able to provide our customers in this region with solutions that are tailored to fit their individual needs.”
Visitors will be introduced to the SolarFlex Nova SL range of UV flexo inks for printing labels, tags, sleeves, tickets and other applications typically found in the narrow web market, Formulated without any volatile organic compounds and compliant with the Nestlé regulations, the SolarFlex Nova SL range can increase color gamut and/or lower ink consumption.
One product from the portfolio is SolarFlex Neutron White, a high opacity UV flexo first-down white ink with excellent opacity, printability and gloss. SolarFlex Neutron White is able to print pinhole-free and allows for printing on aluminum substrates in a single layer.
SolarFlex Sleeve High Opacity White inks allow customers to match the opacity of other UV flexo sleeve whites but at a lower film weight. The UV flexo last-down ink is intended for reverse printing of shrink sleeves and other impervious substrates where high opacity is required.
With high opacity and good printability for maximum covering power, the SolarFlex Sleeve High Opacity White is fast curing to a resistant and flexible ink film with shrink capability up to 60-70 percent.
