Ink Experts – Aqua
Water-based inks are formulated for flexo printing of multiwall sacks, corrugated or solid fibreboard cases. This product can also be use for printing on Kraft carders, Sulphite bags and similar lightweight packaging papers.
Ink Experts-Aqua can be characterized by their ability to provide high quality prints and brightness over bleached, oyster and brown substrates. It has high colour strength at stable viscosity with good drying by absorption into the substrates.
Due to wide area of application of Ink Experts-Aqua that can be tailor-made to meet specific requirements, customers should discuss their specific needs with our technical staff before ordering.
Ink Experts-Roto/Flex
Ink Experts-Roto/Flex is a range of inks formulated for Flexo and Gravure printing of co-extruded polypropylene films that is used for packaging potato crisps and related snack food products.
They exhibit adhesion on the modern high speed press giving prints with low odour and low retained solvent characteristics. The Ink Experts-Roto/Flex has improved heat resistance which minimises jaw cut on heat sealing.
Printers using this ink expect a good gloss, heat resistance, has product resistance toward animal fats, high slip, good scuff resistance, low odour and solvent retention.
Ink Experts-Flexo
Flexographic inks for printing treated polyethylene, polypropylene and certain other films. Being alcohol-based they are suited to today’s food packaging specifications for such applications as bread bags, deep freeze packaging, and carrier and counter bags. For improved half-tone printing the use of Ink Experts-Flexo Hi-Tone inks is recommended.
They have been particularly formulated to take advantage of the modern flexo press where clean running and fast drying properties are required. This series has low odor and solvent retention. Anti-static properties and good slip for enhanced packaging machine performance. Good adhesion providing scuff and abrasion resistance.
As the applications of flexo printed polyethylene (and other films) are so varied the level of slip and certain other properties required of Acess-Flexo inks may be specified in discussion with our technical staff.
