At Printpack India 2025, UFlex Chemicals Business unveiled its latest range of UV and UV LED printing inks, designed for sheetfed, narrow web, letterpress, screen, and web offset printing applications. The company showcased its advanced UV coatings tailored for décor and construction applications, alongside a variety of water-based specialty inks and coatings with oil and grease resistance, as well as heat-sealing properties. UFlex also introduced its water-based lamination adhesives, ideal for paper bags, rigid boxes, and monocarton applications.
“With increasing environmental regulations in the packaging industry, UFlex Chemicals is committed to offering eco-friendly and sustainable solutions, including water-based and UV-LED packaging technologies,” said Rajesh Srivastava, senior vice president, Chemicals Business, UFlex.
“Switching to water-based solutions helps significantly reduce solvent emissions and energy consumption. Another key initiative is our LED-based inks for offset, narrow web, and flexible packaging. LED curing not only reduces energy costs but also lowers carbon emissions compared to conventional UV lamps,” he added.
As a manufacturer of inks, adhesives, and coatings, UFlex Chemicals continues to expand beyond flexible packaging into the construction, décor, offset printing, narrow web, and corrugation segments. “Sustainability remains a core focus for us, and we are working to reduce our carbon footprint through energy consumption initiatives, knowledge sharing, and eco-friendly solutions,” Srivastava said.
Looking ahead, UFlex Chemicals is focused on expanding its R&D capabilities, enhancing product development, and strengthening its distribution network. “The response to our new products at Printpack India 2025 was overwhelmingly positive. This strong interest highlights the growing demand in these markets, and we are excited to explore these opportunities further,” he noted.
