Key Features
Key Features and Benefits
High-Speed In-Line Print Compatibility
The VioFlash VFC series is optimized for in-line UV screen printing systems, making it ideal for fast-moving production lines. It cures rapidly under UV light, allowing printed materials to be handled or processed immediately, which improves production efficiency and reduces bottlenecks.
Broad Substrate Range
These inks are formulated for excellent adhesion on a diverse range of substrates including plastics (PVC, polystyrene, polycarbonate, PETG), as well as coated and uncoated papers and boards. This makes VioFlash VFC a versatile ink system capable of meeting the needs of various print applications with a single ink range.
Excellent Flexibility
VioFlash VFC inks retain high film flexibility after curing, which allows for easy die-cutting, folding, and bending without cracking or loss of adhesion. This makes them particularly suitable for packaging and display applications that require post-print converting or handling.
Reliable Adhesion and Durability
The inks exhibit strong adhesion to both smooth and textured surfaces, maintaining durability through handling, transport, and display. They also resist flaking, chipping, and abrasion, ensuring long-lasting visual integrity of the final product.
Attractive Non-Reflective Finish
Unlike traditional gloss UV inks, VioFlash VFC offers a non-reflective, satin-matte finish, which reduces glare and enhances visibility under retail lighting conditions. This gives printed displays and packaging a more sophisticated and professional appearance, ideal for indoor visual marketing environments.
Consistent Printability and Ink Stability
Engineered for screen printing, the VFC inks provide smooth ink flow, low screen clogging, and sharp edge definition. Their consistent rheology and on-press stability make them easy to use across a variety of screen meshes and conditions, reducing downtime and waste.
Ideal Applications
- In-store promotional displays and signage
- Point-of-sale (POS) advertising materials
- Visual packaging for retail environments
- Window graphics and posters
- Corrugated display boards and shelf signage
- Folding cartons requiring UV durability and flexibility
Sun Chemical’s VioFlash VFC Series inks are a smart choice for printers seeking a versatile, fast-curing, and high-performance UV ink system that supports both creative design and industrial production requirements. Their combination of speed, flexibility, and non-glare finish makes them particularly well-suited for high-impact retail displays and packaging solutions that demand both efficiency and visual appeal.
