The new ink enables the production of primary food packaging

 

Fujifilm Europe has launched a new aqueous food safe ink that extends the application versatility of the Jet Press 720S for packaging production by enabling it to print on primary food packaging.

The new, low migration, ink complies with primary food contact regulations, including the Swiss Ordinance and EC Regulation 1935/2004, and has been specially formulated to work with inline (via a bridge) and near-line UV or aqueous coating.

Taro Aoki, head of digital press solutions in EMEA, said, ‘The introduction of our new, food-safe ink, together with options for inline and near-line coating and specialist pre-press software, takes that versatility to a new level and will appeal to many folding carton converters.’
