Ultrachem revamps flexo consumables portfolio

Building upon the success of the Goldeneye UV flexo ink range, Ultrachem has introduced the Color branded range of high quality water-based flexo Inks and coatings to cater for everything from label, bag, sack, cake, tissue and food package printing.  In addition Ultrachem has strengthened its portfolio of UV flexo varnishes and added UV Fastbond Adhesive as well as developing the PrimaFlex Solutions range of wash-ups, ultrasonic cleaners and additives.

Janet Brinton, Ultrachem director, explained why Ultrachem has revised the range of products, commenting: ‘Since the early 1980s Ultrachem has manufactured and stocked a wide range of UV flexo inks, varnishes and adhesives as well as wash-up and ultrasonic cleaning products in-line with technical advances, environmental requirements and commercial needs. The new additions to our portfolio will strengthen our offering in specialist growing markets.

Ultrachem has brought together the faster moving items into one easy to use A4 flexo inks, coatings and wash guide, and Brinton said: ‘The new literature gives a comprehensive overview of our range, but of course we are able to stock and manufacture a much wider portfolio of more specialist products too.’

Ultrachem has also introduced the use of Ecovent containers for all wash products, as reported here. ‘These containers are especially designed to empty smoothly and accurately without glugging of the liquid therefore avoiding dangerous splashing during discharge,’ added Brinton.

‘Our ability to make bespoke products to overcome specific problems and production issues sets us apart from our competitors. Furthermore, we have a commitment to only use high quality raw materials and packaging – with one aim to give our customers total peace of mind.’
