Amcor unveils metallic printing technology
Amcor’s folding carton business has launched a new printing technology named Sunshine.
The process delivers a highly reflective metallic effect, unlimited design possibilities, and faster speed to market for a range of folding carton applications. The breakthrough technology also simplifies the supply chain, improves packing line performance versus laminated boards, and provides significant environmental benefits.
“Sunshine technology is a cutting-edge development using the gravure printing process,” said Felix Angst, Amcor’s Business Development Director for the Americas, in a comment.
The in-line process is completed on a single press and removes various stages in the supply chain - therefore reducing lead times and eliminating extra transportation costs associated with conventional metallization methods.
