Sun Chemical to debut its portfolio of packaging print solutions at Packaging Innovations

Packaging Solutions

Sun Chemical is displaying its comprehensive portfolio of packaging print solutions, including special effects products, on stand J49 at Packaging Innovations for the first time.

The company will demonstrate a range of products, services and packaging supporting its ongoing commitment to sustainability, which continues to be fundamental to its innovation and product development.

It is presenting its SunPak Organic, Diamond and FSP ink ranges, which have been designed for folding carton, work on most sheetfed presses, and address the needs of paper and board printers with high quality and sustainable output. In particular, Sun Chemical's flagship food packaging offset ink set, SunPak FSP, which is based on renewable bio based materials, has set a new benchmark in eco friendliness through a combination of compliance and sustainability. Not only is it fully compliant with all existing food packaging legislation worldwide, but it has also been independently tested to prove the high level of its environmental sustainability.

Also presenting its range of functional and special effects inks and coatings, which can both add to shelf appeal and the functionality of packaging, the company will be demonstrating the tactile effects, ranging from coarse and gritty to soft and smooth, that can be achieved with its SunInspire specialty inks and coatings.

A further highlight of the stand will be a demonstration of SunColorBox, which addresses the multiple issues associated with colour management.

Rick Hulme, business director publications and specialities, Sun Chemical UK, commented: ‘This will be Sun Chemical's first time exhibiting at Packaging Innovations and we very much look forward to meeting printers, converters, brand owners and retailers to discuss our broad capabilities and provide packaging solutions across multiple print formats. With the growth in demand for more sustainable packaging solutions, we also expect to see a lot of interest in our eco friendly products and services.’
