Siegwerk’s UniNATURE was launched by Kirit Modi, presidet, Emeritus, ICCMA

Siegwerk India has announced the launch of its new generation of sustainable inks, UniNATURE, in the Indian market. The company shared that the UniNATURE product range is formulated with renewable and natural components, providing an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional inks without impacting the recyclability of paper and board packaging, thereby taking a step towards reducing the microplastics which can be found in inks.

Siegwerk claims that the new sustainable water-based ink range comes with excellent ink performance and color strengths, offering similar performance and properties as current water-based technologies. User tests have shown improved dot shape, comparable dot gain, high resolubility, and easy cleaning on press, meaning it can be easily exchanged with current products without the need to change equipment, processes or color matches.

Siegwerk added that high printing speeds on presses, on both coated and uncoated papers, can be achieved with UniNATURE. The new inks and coatings series is applicable for several paper and board applications including corrugated board boxes, trays and displays, fast food packaging, sacks and bags, as well as cups and wraps. It supports various printing applications whilst meeting the highest market and regulatory standards.

Designed for use with Siegwerk’s Unibase colored bases, UniNATURE inks can be supplied as ready-to-use inks directly from Siegwerk. However, UniNATURE extenders and Unibase colorbases are more frequently supplied to customers to be mixed on demand at dispense equipment directly at the customer.

Ramakrishna Karanth, CEO, Siegwerk India sub-continent, said, “As we are venturing into a resource-preservative future, our vision at Siegwerk India is to work towards sustainable development. Siegwerk’s consistent efforts for a better tomorrow resulted in the formulation of the UniNATURE ink series made from renewable and natural sources, for a greener future keeping in mind the 3S’s – Safety, Sustainability and Satisfaction of the consumer.”
