GA-Series
A high pigmented and high-contrast binding agent system with good gloss, good printing properties and favourable piling properties which was especially developed in view of low odour.
The requirement of scent reduction calls for binding agents which do not comply with the common demands for rub resistance. Therefore dispersion varnishing is strictly necessary for all printing jobs.
The principal application is mainly the printing of primary packaging for flavour sensitive filling.
| Properties | |
|---|---|
| Scent reduced: | yes |
| Swelling reduced: | yes |
| Migration reduced: | no |
The GA series is an absorbing system. Absorbing components are potential migrating components. Therefore, it has to be provided that the packaging structure (e.g. barrier) meets the legal requirements (1935/2004 EC) regarding migration.
| Mineral oil free: | yes |
| Absorption: | yes |
| Primary food packaging: | not appropriate |
| Dispersion varnishing: | necessary |
