Printing Inks for Beer and Beverage Cans
Polistar printing inks
With a successful history of more than 15 years, ACTEGA is the market leader for printing inks supplied to beer and beverage can makers in South America.
Polistar, one of our best-known brands, delivers outstanding functional and decorative performance, and its printability is unmatched. Our inks are exceptionally sustainable, as well - they are Cradle to Cradle Certified®, suitable for indirect food contact, and fully compliant with regulations governing heavy metals. And to top it all off, they are BPA-NI and PFAS-free.
In addition to conventional printing applications, we also offer special-effect printing inks that boast tactile, thermochromic, or fluorescent properties, just to name a few.
We want to be able to meet all of our customers’ needs across the board in the future. To that end, we are expanding our current South American hub into North America. Our new greenfield site will produce our decorative inks for metal beverage cans alongside other products, and it is slated to be up and running in the second half of 2024.
