Sun Chemical will present its innovative range of packaging inks, coatings, adhesives, and expert services under the theme of ‘Experience. Transformation.’ at FACHPACK 2025 (Nuremberg, Germany, 23-25 September, Hall 5, Stand 5-202), underlining its position as a trusted partner in the packaging industry.
FACHPACK is one of Europe’s leading trade fairs for packaging, technology and processing. Held annually in Nuremberg, Germany, the event brings together packaging professionals, solution seekers and innovators from across Europe and beyond. With its strong focus on packaging trends, materials, processes and sustainability, FACHPACK has become a key meeting point for companies ranging from industry leaders to market entrants.
With a focus on supporting brand owners and converters in meeting both regulatory demands and sustainability goals, visitors to the stand will experience how Sun Chemical’s complete packaging offering, which includes complete nitrocellulose (NC) free solutions, ultra-low monomer (ULM) adhesives, barrier coatings and the SunColorBox suite of digital colour management tools, contribute to increased production efficiency, enhanced recyclability and improved shelf appeal.
Cutting-edge innovations for recyclability and compliance
A key highlight at the show will be Sun Chemical’s NC-free ink solutions, designed to help customers meet rigorous recyclability and compliance requirements. Supporting the transition to a more circular packaging, these solutions maintain high-performance print quality while enabling easier post-consumer recycling. Also showcased will be the latest ULM adhesive technologies, developed to improve industrial hygiene without requiring additional operator training. With monomeric isocyanate content under 0.1% and primary aromatic amine (PAA) levels below 2ppb, these adhesives are food-compliant from the beginning, significantly accelerating time to market.
Coatings and colour management
In response to the growing need for mono-material packaging, Sun Chemical will also showcase its evolving range of barrier coatings. These solutions are tailored to maintain or extend product shelf life while enabling a smooth transition to recyclable, mono-material structures.
In addition to its product portfolio, Sun Chemical will present SunColorBox, a unique set of tools and services designed to enable consistent and accurate digital colour communication across the entire packaging supply chain. Visitors to the stand can see how SunColorBox facilitates the switch from NC to NC-free inks by helping visualise achievable colours, driving efficiencies and ensuring these colours are within the desired tolerance.
