The event will take place from 5 to 6 September.

At the event, the company will exhibit full portfolio of inks for monobloc and three-piece aerosol cans.

Sun Chemical will also present its expertise, knowledge and capabilities in metal decoration through its specialized ink solutions, comprising including special effects, brand protection, brand color management, and print standardization.

The firm will present SunAltec series, which includes high-performance range of inks for metal decorating on monobloc aerosol cans.

The inks are said to provide advanced performance, better quality, high productivity and durable chemical resistance properties.

Sun Chemical’s MB Plus series, which is part of the SunAltec product portfolio, is a ink series that was specifically developed for the application on monobloc aerosols.

The ink series deploys an alkyd-based ink system, which has been modified to deliver better performance on new generation product lines with the support of basecoat technology.

Sun Chemical will also present SunTrio range for three-piece cans. The inks will be used for sheetfed printing applications.

SunTrio range will deliver press performance and good adhesion between layers and the substrate, and can be used for most types of aerosol cans and closures both in UV and conventional methods.

Spot colors can be easily handled for both the SunAltec and SunTrio product families. Through using SunMatch web-based color matching tool, any shade can be produced directly onsite.

Sun Chemical has collaborated with Document Security Solutions (DSS) to cross market and sell one another’s anti-counterfeiting products.

Via smartphone, the brand owners, supply chain personnel and consumers can validate product authenticity with the support of AuthentiGuard.
