Letterpress for Paper
and Film Materials
UVALUX ® U40 Series
With the UVALUX ® U40 series we offer adhesionoptimized
UV printing inks for high quality offset
printing and letterpress for the universal use on paper
and films.
The UVALUX ® U40 ink series was developed for
printing of non-food-packaging, non-food-labels, as
well as for all types of printed forms and commercials.
UVALUX ® U40 is specially also designed for high
machine speeds and is characterized by excellent
offset-stability, low ink-misting and a low odour.
UVALUX ® U40 inks are especially suitable for
printing on coated and uncoated paper and cardboard
materials. Excellent results are also given when
printing on a large variety of film materials although
pre-tests are always recommended. Due to the newly
developed binding agent system of this ink series, with
UVALUX ® U40 it is easily possible also when running
at high machine speeds to achieve excellent adhesion,
sharp printability, high colour density and high gloss.
The points mentioned distinguish the UVALUX ® U40
series as an ink series with a wide area of application
possibilities.
