Sustainability Trends Shaping the Packaging Inks and Coatings Industry
Many key market players are prioritizing the development of innovative, environmentally friendly products, such as water-based inks, to address sustainability goals and minimize ecological impact. Water-based inks use water as the main solvent, making them safer and less harmful compared to traditional solvent-based inks, which contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This shift reflects a growing drive within the industry to reduce harmful emissions and promote greener alternatives.

Innovative Product Launches Highlight Industry's Commitment to Eco-Friendly Solutions
An example of this trend is Sun Chemical Corporation's launch in January 2024 of their SunStrato AquaLam Gen2 Ink Series. This US-based chemicals firm introduced a water-based ink designed specifically for high-quality laminated and retortable flexible packaging. The new ink series improves print quality and bonding strength while lowering VOC and CO2 emissions by 18-20% compared to conventional solvent-based inks, demonstrating how innovation is meeting sustainability standards within the market.
