6 new printing technologys and materials you should know

The surface look of packaging is important. Since it has a direct impact on consumer purchases. Wish to make your products stand out on the shelves of stores? Pay attention to your product packaging. Advanced printing technologys  can improve your packaging to the next level. The following are 6 trending new printing technologys you should now if you don't want to be eliminated.

Nanographic Printing technology
In printing industry, ability to show the details is of the one of the most important standards of printing quality. This provide the possibility for the potential applications of nanotechnology. Nanographic Printing technology combined the strong flexibility of digital printing and efficiency of traditional offset printing. With Nanographic Printing technology, you can not only achieve higher production efficiency, but can also make seamless connection with your present printing working environment.

Graphene conductive ink
In smart packaging and printed electronics market, silver and copper paste conductive ink take dominant position. But in 2011, graphene conductive ink started to show its influence power and brought new hope to the market. Graphene conductive ink has excellent conductive properties, moreover, it has lower price and better softness. Because it has very prominent advantages, graphene conductive ink will become a new force in conductive ink market.

Waterless Lithographic
Waterless lithographic is an offset printing technology that does not use water or wetting system. For a long time, the printing and packaging industry are wary of waterless printing. But during the past two years, waterless lithographic achieve great progress under the cooperation of printing machine manufacturers, paper and ink manufacturers.  Waterless lithographic uses silicone rubber coated plate, special ink and printing machine temperature control. By using waterless lithographic, you can achieve higher printing efficiency.

High fidelity color printing technology
Eye-catching packaging colors are the most powerful promotional tools for retailers. even if consumers may not pay attention to this point, but it's true. While shopping, consumers would figure out the brand logo of the products at first, after that they will read the product description tag. This fully reflects the importance of brand logo colors.

Biodegradable ink
With people's increasing environmental awareness, sustainable packaging becoming more and more popular in packaging industry. Printing industry should make more efforts in improving the sustainable development of printing and packaging. New green ink and printing technology are emerging. One of the most representative is biodegradable ink ClimaPrint produced by India ink manufacturers EnNatura.

Soy Ink

Thermal inkjet printing
Usualy, packaging companies use laser marking, continuous inkjet coding and thermal transfer printing to print bar codes on commodities. Now, they have a new choice, thermal inkjet printing. In fact, thermal inkjet printing technology has been used in offices for many years. But it hasn't been used  in industrial application until recently. Recently, thermal inkjet printing technology made big progress in ink drying rate and substrate material adaptability. It become more attractive for packaging companies.
