Hubergroup has decided to update many of its products for the UV offset segment.  The new technologies in particular, such as UV printing using LED lamps or iron-doped lamps require inks and lacquers with trouble-free characteristics – products that fulfil the specific requirements of these curing systems even better than their predecessors.

“These new curing technologies make is possible to customise press technology more specifically to customers’ requirements”, Carsten Zölzer, Product Manager UV Inks at hubergroup, emphasizes. His colleague Roland Schröder backs him up: “As a printing-ink manufacturer, we can support printing houses by supplying them with inks and lacquers precisely formulated for these specialised applications.”

In addition, hubergroup has also revised its ink series for conventional UV printing using standard UV mercury lamps. Properly harmonised fount concentrates are also available for all of the UV ink series.

Following a comprehensive test phase, these upgrades have now reached full market-readiness.
