CHICAGO—  Flint Group has announced the release of a comprehensive whitepaper to outline the role of inks and coatings in supporting safe food packaging. Delving into the critical importance of food packaging safety and testing, the whitepaper explores the challenges posed by food contact materials (FCM) and the crucial role that high-quality inks and coatings play in minimizing risk. “The whitepaper examines the legislative landscape governing FCM and provides a stronger understanding of regulatory demands from an ink and coating perspective. There’s no margin for error when it comes to consumer safety; therefore, we aim to build a stronger foundation of knowledge across the market.” Alongside an explanation of common sources of migration, the whitepaper also includes information about the EkoCure® ANCORA ink range. Designed for FCM label printing applications, this UV LED FCM ink series combines dual cure (UV Hg and UV LED) technology with food-compliant chemistry to enable food-safe printing at high press speeds.
