Sun Chemical (Sun Chemical) recently launched a new generation of infrared security inks - SunGuardApollo, to help brand owners fight against the increasingly rampant fake and shoddy products.
SunGuard Apollo inks are designed for commercial and packaging printers who want to provide customers with truly effective and affordable security solutions. This ink uses infrared response pigments (IRresponsive Pigments) that can be used either in inks or as clear varnishes.
Infrared security inks are not nearly as common as UV fluorescent inks, and they will never be used in innovative applications.
As a brand protection solution, infrared security ink is a powerful weapon to protect packaging, labels and documents from counterfeit products. If the job has used UV fluorescent inks, then infrared safe inks can be used without any changes.
SunGuard Apollo inks allow printers to provide customers with a safer product without compromising the current style, design or color of the job.
