Raw material costs and supply, market integration and sustainability, which are on the label / packaging and printing industry has played a crucial role in the development of ink.At the same time, the industry's R & D department is committed to soft packaging, its printing tends to full color gamut printing, low mobility and increase the application of LED-UV ink possible, all of which require new formulations and mixing technology.

UV curing

Pulse, a subsidiary of Pulse Group, has launched PureTone's high-intensity UV-curable flexographic inks, a single-color, mixed substrate and a range of fast-drying and non-fading pigments that can be automatically adjusted by software Into a predetermined color.
