Ink systems and varnishes for label printing is one of Siegwerk’s pillars. In Aarberg (Switzerland), the Center of Competence for Narrow Web, we are constantly developing new solutions for label printers and end-users. Siegwerk Switzerland produces solvent-based, water-based and radiation-curing printing ink systems and varnishes. Label printing inks must exhibit a wide range of fastnesses and resistance to a diverse assortment of packaged products. They must adhere to a wide range of plastics and be suitable for high-speed printing machines.
