Siegwerk, a provider of printing inks and coatings for packaging applications and labels, has introduced its first full UV flexo deinking system for the European market.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Named CIRKIT CLEARPRIME UV E02, this new primer technology is tailored for non-food packaging applications and is a validated solution for the efficient deinking of UV-printed self-adhesive labels.<\/p>\n

The new system is claimed to improve the recyclability of labelled plastic packaging and facilitate the recovery of quality recyclates that can be reused in non-food packaging applications.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

During a debut field test with Masterpress, a supplier of labels and printed decorative packaging solutions, the effectiveness of Siegwerk\u2019s new deinking primer was confirmed in all aspects.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new system eliminates the need for prior label removal if the used plastics are compatible, by enabling easy and safe deinking of UV-printed self-adhesive labels.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The in-house laboratory tests at Masterpress and Siegwerk claim to have demonstrated the primer\u2019s effectiveness, with excellent recyclate results.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
