Sustainable additives for printing inks and overprint varnishes

Optimized pigment distribution, smoothness and optimal substrate wetting

Our SILCO^® additives improve the wetting and stabilization of pigments, resulting in uniform ink layers and high ink intensity. They prevent flocculation, minimize colour shifts and ensure excellent printing results.

Surface modification for long-lasting print products

ULTRALUBE^® wax emulsions and dispersions give printing inks and coatings improved scratch and abrasion resistance as well as optimized slip and anti-blocking properties. This makes packaging and printed products more resistant and durable - an important contribution to conserving resources.

Foam control for efficient processes

With SPACTIVE^® defoamers, we offer solutions that reduce the formation of disruptive foam in production without compromising surface quality. This ensures the smooth application of printing inks and coatings while also increasing production efficiency.

Responsibility for a sustainable future

Our additives enable resource-conserving production, reduce energy and material consumption and contribute to the realization of sustainable packaging solutions. Through continuous research and development, we are optimizing our technologies for a more environmentally friendly future in the printing industry. Our focus here is particularly on the use of bio-based raw materials with a low Product Carbon Footprint (PCF).
