Hubergroup opens India’s first production facility for direct food contact inks
hubergroup Print Solutions inaugurated India’s first dedicated production facility for Direct Food Contact (DFC) inks in Silvassa. The state-of-the-art facility is entirely separated from other production areas, setting new standards in safety, sustainability, and innovation for food packaging.
hubergroup produces Direct Food Contact inks in its production facility in India.
The new facility produces the sheet-fed ink series MGA CONTACT, specifically developed for direct contact with food.
Raw materials used in the production of the inks are thoroughly screened. These inks comply with stringent international safety standards and allow printing on the inside of paper and cardboard packaging, when coated with a dispersion varnish such as hubergroup’s ACRYLAC DFC series.
This opens up new design possibilities for packaging products like chocolates, fruits, and fast food, supporting the transition to more environmentally friendly, paper-based solutions.
The inauguration of this specialized production facility in Silvassa underscores hubergroup's commitment to innovation and sustainability in the packaging industry. As a strategically important site within the company's global network, the facility contributes to increased supply security and offers tailored solutions to customers worldwide.
