Siegwerk introduces new packaging laser printing ink

Information on product packaging, such as shelf life, price, barcode, national or language statements, etc., need to meet more and more packaging requirements. In the past, white or other light-colored packaging, laser printing code is difficult to see, and sometimes only use some high-end equipment. The latest development of laser printing inks from Siegwerk Germany solves this problem.

A laser-readable signature is generated by the interaction of the CO2 laser and the Datalase pigment of the laser-sensitive ink. This code has permanent and high-quality performance, strong resistance to light and temperature, and instrument readability. Especially suitable for food, medicine, cosmetics and tobacco packaging. This laser-sensitive ink is the result of a collaboration between Siegwerk, Germany, STI, a packaging manufacturer, and Domino, a leading laser technology company.

Founded in 1830, Germany's Siegwerk is one of the oldest private companies in Europe. There are 4,000 employees in 34 countries and annual sales of 830 million euros. Germany's Siegwerk is the third largest ink manufacturer in the world, with many inventions and patented products. Siegwerk is a global leader in packaging and gravure printing inks.
