Plasto-Sac, a growing packaging producer in the Middle East, is installing a Comexi wide-web CI flexographic press designed to use Sun Chemical's patented Wetflex EC printing process.
Sun Chemical added that it established itself in the narrow-web market with the Solaris range of inks and coatings for narrow-web printers.
At Labelexpo 2007 new products will build on that foundation, which the company claimed will help printers and brand owners improve their productivity and efficiency.
The Solaris product line includes inks that are claimed to make labels stand out by being specially formulated to meet the needs of customers.
The inks can be paired with coatings that add such effects as gloss, matt and chemical resistance.
The full range includes products for virtually all narrow web-printing processes, including UV flexo, water-based flexo, screen whites and colours, and letterpress and lithography, said Sun.
Jonathan Sexton, Sun Chemical Europe's business manager for narrow-web labels, said: "We are pleased with the response to our Solaris range since its launch at the last Labelexpo Europe.
The range has brought to the narrow-web market important benefits that include faster cure speeds, low press room and cured print odour, lower humidity sensitivity and improved adhesion and resistance." Felipe Mellado, Sun Chemical Europe's corporate vice-president, added: "We will be revealing a number of unique and innovative products specifically designed for the narrow-web market at Labelexpo 2007.
These exciting new technologies open up new opportunities for printers.
They also keep Sun Chemical at the forefront of the industry and represent our long-term commitment to the sector.".
