New white, low-odour, claimed high-slip Flexocure XS ink from Xsys Print Solutions will be available for visitors to Labelexpo to see on stand 5B45.

Flexocure XS is an upgrade of Xsys Print Solutions' Flexocure Ivory flexo opaque white base The company said that visitors will see the effect that can be achieved with the inks

Xsys Print Solutions' global brand manager, Niklas Olsson, commented: "New ancillary products for UV curing, a field in which we are at the leading edge of narrow-web print, that will be added to our palette include a UV-curable pressure-sensitive adhesive, an abrasion-resistant UV varnish and a UV-curable laminating adhesive.

We will also be extending our portfolio of products for product authentication and brand security." Visitors to Labelexpo, which runs from September 26 - 29, will also see Xsys launch what it described as a second-generation product, Combiwhite XL.

The company said that the product is the result of research with enhanced properties, such as flow-out at higher speeds and no drip-through when standing idle.

Olsson said: "As all artists know, colour vibrancy is dependent on the whiteness of the base substrate and this applies to print as well as to painting.

Our Combiwhite opaque white UV screen ink has for some time been providing superb opacity and perfect over-printability." At the other end of the colour spectrum, Xsys's new Flexocure Ebony, which will also be on show at Labelexpo, is claimed to be a super-black, high-density UV flexo ink suitable for a range of substrates using fine-to-medium anilox rollers.

XSYS Print Solutions said that its portfolio of narrow-web inks spans a range of decorative applications, from self-adhesive, wrap-around and in-mould labels to sleeves, flexible packaging and folding cartons.

The company added that half of the prize winners in this year's FINAT International Label Competition were printed with XSYS inks.

Niklas Olsson added: "As the world's only dedicated manufacturer of narrow-web inks, we rightly consider the results achieved with label and narrow-web print as fine art and that makes our converter customers the Leonardo da Vincis, the Picassos and the Warhols of the product decoration field.".
