ColorGen unveils two new UV flexo ink ranges

Posted on 20th July 2011

ColorGen (stand 5A15) will unveil two new UV flexo ink ranges. CG Flex FLM is the company’s flagship UV flexo low migration ink system. CG Flex FLM inks are free from all low molecular weight/highly mobile components and use only raw materials listed as low migration under EuPia (Group 1A and 1B) and Swiss Ordinance Annexe 6, making them appropriate for food packaging where a low migration profile is essential.

Also on show will be the CG Flex XF700 range, which exclusively contain photoinitiators that comply with EuPIA and Swiss Ordinance guidelines. Both of these ranges have been developed for use on low volume anilox rollers; their increased strength means that ink mileage can increase by as much as 30 percent, says the company. Improved reactivity means that press speeds in excess of 200mpm can be achieved. ColorGen will be recruiting distributors to allow further expansion into the global market.
