Sun Chemical to showcase new SunVetro SGF organic inks and glass printing solutions at Glasstec 2026

SOUTH NORMANTON, UK – 17th September 2026 – Sun Chemical will present its full range of screen and pad printing inks for multiple flat, hollow and 3D glass applications on Stand G 20.2, Hall 12 at Glasstec 2026, from 20th to 23rd October at Messe Düsseldorf, Germany.

A key focus will be Sun Chemical’s recently launched SunVetro SGF series of organic inks. Glasstec 2026 will be the first exhibition where Sun Chemical will introduce the new series. The unique two-pack, solvent-based organic ink with outdoor durability is suitable for glass decoration, including both flat and 3D glass across a range of applications, including architectural, furniture and sign applications, as well as automotive, displays, packaging and drinking vessels.

SunVetro’s screen ink series offers an ideal solution for hollow glass surface decorating. Comprising various organic inks, including a mix of UV curing and conventional solvent-based inks for direct printing onto glass, SunVetro offers an alternative to traditional ceramic enamel printing.

The portfolio includes a full range of screen and pad printing inks, enabling Sun Chemical to support glass decorators and end users with decorated glass in multiple formats.

Also being showcased at Glasstec 2026 will be:

  • Sun Chemical’s NVTGL series – UV inks for glass containers and drinking vessels
  • SunSpray™ WBSPG – range of 100% water-based glass spray coatings feature a range of transparent, frost, matte, and high gloss coatings. These products offer a more sustainable approach to glass decoration, improve recyclability, and provide outstanding appearance and durability. SunSpray water-based coatings are free of BPA and HAP and exhibit extremely low VOCs.
  • Duracote – the industry standard for cold-end coatings, adding superior scuff protection, lubricity, and strength to the glass container.
  • SunCoat – Sun Chemical’s one-stop source for all screen-making products, from preparation materials and cleansers to reclaiming products.

Robin McMillan, Business Development Manager – Screen and Industrial Europe, Sun Chemical, comments: “We have exhibited at Glasstec for over 20 years and it is an important event for us to continue showcasing the SunVetro glass ink ranges and our wider portfolio of glass decoration products to the market. Glass is considered, as a packaging material, of being a high value product with a high degree of sustainability, and it is therefore important to us that we can deliver products that have minimal ecological impact and are of high quality to meet our customers’ requirements. We look forward to showcasing a wide range of our solutions and introducing the SunVetro SGF series to visitors at our stand.”
