Hubergroup to showcase sustainable ink portfolio in Barcelona
The company will demonstrate how innovative ink technologies unite sustainability with efficient processes at Labelexpo Europe 2025.

Hubergroup Print Solutions has confirmed it will demonstrate how its innovative ink technologies unite sustainable packaging, efficient processes and strong partnerships at Labelexpo Europe 2025 in Barcelona.
The company will showcase its iray UV flexo series, a comprehensive and finely tuned system of primers, laminating adhesives, inks and varnishes designed to work together. Available for both food and non-food applications, the series encompasses a wide range of applications, including self-adhesive labels, shrink sleeves and pouches. Customers benefit from high scratch resistance, strong adhesion, low odour and high yield. Hubergroup ensured that iray products meet deinkability standards on both film and paper, supporting circularity in packaging.
'We will be happy to advise label printers on how they will achieve high-resolution print results with our iray products and will explain how we ensure a smooth implementation of our ink system in their production,' said Darren Hallett, director of business development UV flexo at Hubergroup for Europe. 'Our approaches not only boost production efficiency but also contribute to more sustainable printing results.'
Visitors will also learn about Hubergroup's innovative Hydro-X portfolio for water-based flexo and gravure printing. Thanks to its modular ink mixing system, which consists of concentrates, blends, and additives, Hydro-X enables tailor-made approaches across various packaging substrates, including paper, cardboard, aluminum, and plastic film. A highlight in this segment are the water-based barrier coatings, which improve the oxygen or water and grease resistance of mono-material packaging.
Completing the lineup is Gecko, Hubergroup's trusted solvent-based series, known for reliability and excellent printability. It covers a multitude of applications with a minimum of components. To help customers design recyclable packaging with these solvent-based inks, hubergroup offers various options: the PU-based Gecko Platinum series, NC-based printing within the thresholds using NC-free White, and NC-based printing combined with a deinking primer, allowing the inks to be easily removed.
'At Labelexpo 2025, we're not only showing products – we're offering a partnership,' added Hallett. 'With our holistic, sustainable portfolio and strong service focus, we help printers face today's challenges and seize tomorrow's opportunities. That's why being in direct conversation with our partners at events like Labelexpo is so important to us. We look forward to inspiring talks in Barcelona.'
