Sun Chemical Low Migration Technology Offers Peace of Mind for Food and Beverage Packaging
Sun Chemical’s SunPak LMQ products help address the risk brand owners face in food and beverage packaging, where compounds from materials in the packaging structure can migrate into the food product or the surrounding environment. SunPak LMQ inks exhibit very low odor, off-flavor and migration levels, and offer a comprehensive solution to brand owners and converters who are looking for ways to address migration concerns for food, pharmaceutical and tobacco applications.

The Sun Chemical solution combines chemistry, press preparation procedures, lithographic guidance and analytical support to help converters meet the most demanding requirements.

SunInspire Specialty Coating Engages Senses

Sun Chemical’s SunInspire specialty coatings engage the human senses of sight, touch, and aroma. Using the SunInspire line of coatings, these special effects coatings allow product packaging to stand out on store shelves visually through: high luster metallic, fluorescent, glitter, pearlescent, as well as iridescent and soft touch or sandy feel finishes.

Packaging can pop off the shelf with SunInspire tactile coatings ranging from coarse and gritty to soft and smooth. Other coatings in the line can create an interactive experience with color shifting, reticulating, and other aromatic coatings.
