Flexible Packaging
Film-forming and plasticising polyurethanes for reverse-print, lamination and indirect food-contact inks, plus alcohol-soluble polyamides for food and milk packaging.
Flexible packaging inks must balance print quality on film, lamination performance and regulatory requirements for residual solvents and indirect food contact. Our packaging line is built around those constraints.

What to think about
Indirect food contact
Unikopak 2240 and 2230 are specified for indirect food-contact ink work. TDS is available on request.
Residual solvent
Ethanol-soluble Unimide US-25 keeps residual solvent profiles tight for milk-packaging compliance.
Reverse-print + lamination
Plasticising Unikopak 1224 / 1235 protect adhesion through the laminator.
Lamination spec held across a high-volume packaging line.
A flexible packaging converter standardised reverse-print and lamination ink chemistry on Unikopak 1224 and AP-X. Adhesion held through downstream lamination across the SKU range.
