Concentrate and Technology Varnish System for UV Flexo Printing

Sun Chemical has developed a new concept to provide not only a significant upgrade in print performance and handling, but a flexibility never seen before in UV flexo.

Sun Chemical SolarVerse system is unique and ground-breaking because of the high pigmentation, low viscosity and free-flowing nature of the concentrates, making them dispensable from an unmodified UV flexo dispenser.

This opens up all the advantages of having a versatile concentrate and technology varnish system but without having to invest in expensive ‘high viscosity’ dispensers or having to resort to manual dispensing.

The SolarVerse concentrates themselves are formulated from materials that allow the manufacture of food packaging compliant inks when blended in the correct ratio with an appropriate technology varnish.
