Arno Dürr, Sales Director of WEILBURGER Graphics GmbH about the newly certified
products: “Our claim to guarantee highest product quality of our varnishes and inks in the
graphics industry both in the Non-Food as well as in the range of Food Packaging, is once
again fulfilled demonstrably: now we can impress once again in the difficult market of
suitable varnishes for Food Packaging in the product classes dispersion coatings, oil-based
varnishes and UV curing lacquers with new special and effect varnishes. We are very
pleased about the fast certification of our newly formulated SENOSOFT ® WB MATT
COATING FP NDC 17-5314 350210 with a strong haptic effect and the related SENOSOFT ®
HARDENER 20-4235 372250, as the demand is extremely high and the uncritical use of the
varnish in combination with the optional hardener was especially required by our customers
in the field of Food Packaging. Also the made certification of the Twin system for matt/gloss
effects, the Hybrid system for structure/gloss effects as well as the UV gloss lacquer, enable
now a wealth of new effects and effect varieties in the Food Packaging and facilitate the work
of designers, brand-owners and printing facilities to produce visually high-quality and
outstanding packaging on the POS that offer low migration and low odour in the range of
Food Packaging.”
