Pulse Roll Label Products launch new range

BPIF member, Pulse Roll Label Products, based in Yate Gloucester, who supply innovative ink and varnish solutions for the global narrow web label industry, has recently launched a new range of UV flexo inks for the food labeling market building on their existing PureTone range with a new PureTone Food Packaging Compliant series. These are intended for non-direct food contact labelling and packaging applications. As with the existing PureTone range, the new FPC inks will offer superior colour consistency, accuracy and repeatability.

Gary Seward, Managing Director, Pulse Roll Label Products said, "We are committed to the principles of protecting food consumer safety within the areas under our control and consequently Pulse Roll Label Products is a fully engaged partner in the food packaging supply chain.  We are pleased to now introduce PureTone FPC, the next evolution of our flagship ink system, into the global label market, in line with the very latest guidelines issued by EuPIA concerning Good Manufacturing Practice."

The inks consist of a high strength process series (including process inks which assist the printer to achieve ISO 12647) and a mono-pigmented mixing base scheme that should lead to clean colours for accurate colour matching. The new inks are supported by X-Rite's InkFormulation Software. Furthermore, the optimised colour strength should allow for lower film weights and Pulse says the inks will offer increased press stability and complete pre-press colour control through digital ink management.

There's also a new food packaging compliant shrink sleeve opaque white as well as backing black, high density black and a selection of metallic inks to complement the new FPC range. There are also new food packaging compliant varnishes, adhesives and additives include gloss, satin, matt and ultra matt varnishes, the company's best-selling peel and read release varnish and laminating adhesives.
