Sun Chemical has introduced two new UV ink formulations to the market. RayoflexElectronWhite is a UV flexo white inks for food labels, flexible packaging and shrink film printing that require low migration performance. SolarFlexSlalomWhite is a reverse-printing, highly opaque white UV soft film for shrink film coating. Printing ink. In addition, the company added SolarScreenMRL, a new type of matte screen printing inks for label, signage, ticket and other applications requiring super matte surface printing.

Ultrastar's UVFP-8230 silver ink is formulated with Eckart'sMetalure technology and is a solvent-free yet stable single-component UV-curable flexographic ink.

Eckart two innovative products are RotostarUVFPG775 and UltarastarUVFP-8230 silver paste. RotostarUVFGP775 product is a free radical curing, solvent-free, solid one-component UV flexographic inks. This series of products to copper, aluminum pigment as raw materials for paper, cardboard and suitable for such as self-adhesive polyolefin coating that non-absorbent surface of the printing. UltrastarUVFP-8230 Silver is a solvent-free and stable single-component UV-curable flexographic ink made with its specular aluminum pigment dispersion developed with its METALURE technology. This card is the first ink can be printed on the flexo surface to produce a real mirror effect of ink. This makes the use of UV flexo color ink direct coloring to produce metallic color effects possible, we can see, using the default color UV ink overprint is feasible.
