PU Ultima Ink Series: Revolutionizing Flexible Packaging Inks
In today’s fast-paced packaging industry, innovation, sustainability, and efficiency are key drivers of success. As consumer preferences and regulatory demands continue to evolve, flexible packaging converters require ink solutions that offer superior performance while supporting circular economy goals. The PU Ultima Ink Series, developed by DF Inks, is designed to meet these challenges, offering a high-performance polyurethane-based (PU) ink system optimized for rotogravure and flexographic printing.
Advanced Ink Systems for Modern Packaging Needs
The PU Ultima Ink Series introduces two cutting-edge ink systems:
- PUR
- PUF
- PUX
The ink systems are PVC & NC - free and engineered for high bond strength, superior printability, and reduced environmental impact. These inks are compatible with a wide range of substrates, including BOPP, PET, BiOPA, coated films, and more. Their formulation ensures that packaging maintains its integrity even under demanding conditions like pasteurization, sterilization, and wet wipe applications.
Key Benefits of the PU Ultima Ink Series
1. Exceptional Print Performance
- High-speed printing capabilities, approximately 500-600 meters per minute, optimizing production efficiency.
- Excellent adhesion across multiple substrates, ensuring print durability and consistency.
- Low solvent retention, improving drying times and minimizing odors.
2. Strong Lamination & Structural Integrity
- Optimized for high-bond strength lamination, enhancing packaging durability.
- Designed for multi-layer and complex packaging applications, maintaining graphic clarity and material integrity.
3. Sustainable & Circular Economy-Friendly
- PVC-free formulation, reducing environmental impact and improving recyclability.
