At the Labelexpo Americas, ACTEGA will launch a new line of inks and present innovative inks and coatings for the food, pharma and cosmetics industries. One of the highlights are narrow web pouches with water-based flexo inks and coatings.
Samples of haptic and visual effect coatings for shrink sleeves will also capture visitors’ attention. These coatings are applied on the outside of the shrink sleeve to give extra impact on the shelf and the variety of high-value effects achievable include soft touch, matte and raised image. Special LED-UV coatings for the internal part of the sleeves will also be on display and experts from the ACTEGA team will be on hand to explain the numerous functional benefits of applying these coatings.
“As innovation and sustainability are key pillars of our business and our focus at Labelexpo, the wide range of different products being showcased is sure to include something for all visitors. Whether you are looking for a new offering to attract customers, a way to improve your company’s sustainability credentials or a means to expand your portfolio into new markets, ACTEGA’s comprehensive product range, combined with the industry knowledge and support our team provides to customers, will help you achieve your future goals.”Â
Dr. Thomas Sawitowski, Senior Vice President, Flexible Packaging, ACTEGA

These benefits are a result of the unique qualities of Signite decorations, which were developed with a clear focus on improved sustainability while maintaining the efficiency provided by commercial narrow web printing presses and processes.
