Flint Group Narrow Web has announced an upgraded version of CombiWhite - the over-printable opaque white rotary screen ink widely used in beverage, health and beauty, and no-label look applications.
CombiWhite C3 is designed specifically for combination printing with all narrow web ink technologies and can be used on all types of substrates. Printers can combine print results with virtually any print process such as UV flexo, UV offset, UV letterpress, UV screen or water-based flexo.
Through customer interviews, Flint Group identified 15 performance attributes important for all types of combination printing with screen white inks. The top five include: opacity, flow-out (pinhole free), adhesion, printability of overprinting ink and cross hatch resistance.
Initially, CombiWhite C3 will be commercialized in Europe as the regulations have been implemented in this region. It will be available in the same sets of press-ready products optimized for no-label look applications that were previously available. New products are subject to a product code change: USW90005 replaces USW90001; USW90006 replaces USW90003.
Effective immediately, CombiWhite C3 is available across all Flint Group Narrow Web distribution channels, and Flint Group will no longer supply inks containing N vinyl carpolactam in Europe.
