Special Application of Offset Printing Ink in Packaging Printing

Introduction

Offset printing ink has a wide range of applications in packaging printing. Its excellent performance and diverse adaptability make it an important material in the packaging industry. This article will explore the special applications of offset printing ink in packaging printing, covering different types of packaging materials and printing needs.

Basic characteristics of offset printing ink

The application of offset printing ink in packaging printing benefits from its following basic characteristics:

High adhesion: It can be firmly attached to the surface of various packaging materials and is not easy to fall off.

Bright colors: High color reproduction, can achieve bright and realistic pattern and text printing.

Strong wear resistance: The printed pattern has good wear resistance and can withstand friction during transportation and use.

Environmental protection: Water-based ink and vegetable oil-based ink reduce the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and are environmentally friendly.

Special applications in packaging printing

Paper packaging

Application: paper boxes, paper bags, labels, etc.

Features: Offset printing ink is widely used in paper packaging, which can achieve high-resolution pattern and text printing, and enhance the beauty and brand value of packaging. Especially in food and pharmaceutical packaging, the application of environmentally friendly inks can ensure the safety of products.

Plastic packaging

Application: plastic bags, plastic bottles, plastic boxes, etc.

Features: UV offset inks are cured by ultraviolet rays and can achieve high-quality printing on plastic materials. Its excellent adhesion and wear resistance make the printed pattern not easy to fall off, which is suitable for various plastic packaging needs.

Metal packaging**

Application: metal cans, metal boxes, metal labels, etc.

Features: The application of offset printing inks on metal packaging requires special processing technology to ensure that the ink can be firmly attached to the metal surface. The application of UV offset inks can achieve high-quality pattern printing and enhance the visual effect and durability of metal packaging.

Glass packaging

Application: glass bottles, glass jars, glass cups, etc.

Features: The application of offset printing inks on glass packaging requires a special curing process to ensure that the ink can be firmly attached to the smooth glass surface. The application of UV offset inks in glass packaging can achieve transparent or translucent effects, enhancing the high-end and beautiful appearance of the packaging.

Composite material packaging

Application: composite material bags, composite material boxes, etc.

Features: Composite packaging is usually composed of multiple layers of different materials. The application of offset printing ink on composite materials needs to consider the adhesion and compatibility of different materials. UV offset printing ink can achieve high-quality printing on the surface of composite materials to meet a variety of packaging needs.

Technical advantages

Diversified applications: Offset printing ink can adapt to a variety of packaging materials, including paper, plastic, metal, glass and composite materials, and has a wide range of applications.

High-quality printing: It can achieve high-resolution pattern and text printing with bright colors, which enhances the beauty and brand value of packaging.

Environmental performance: The application of environmentally friendly ink reduces pollution to the environment and meets the requirements of green printing. It is particularly suitable for packaging printing with high safety requirements such as food and medicine.

Efficient production: The offset printing process is suitable for mass production, with high production efficiency, and can meet the market demand for a large number of packaging printed products.
