18 Jul 2024 --- Siegwerk has announced the launch of its first full UV flexo de-inking system for the European market: Cirkit Clear Prime UV E02. The new primer technology for non-food packaging applications offers a validated solution for the safe and economical deinking of UV-printed self-adhesive labels (PSL). The innovation improves the recyclability of labeled plastic packaging and enables the recovery of high-quality recyclates that are suitable for reuse. Although UV inks offer advantageous properties for printing labels, they also pose a challenge for recycling systems.
