Printing Inks for Food and General Line Cans

With more than 20 years of experience, ACTEGA is the South American market leader in printing inks for metal decoration. We provide exceptional quality and outstanding service.

Our customers benefit from our comprehensive portfolio of printing inks for the metal packaging industry, which covers markets such as food cans, decorative cans, general line cans, drums, and many more.

ACTEGA’s printing inks can be applied using offset printing onto tinplate coated with a base coat or primer, providing outstanding color strength, low dot gain and misting, incredible adhesion, great ink-water balance, and excellent runnability.

ACTEGA’s printing inks are also highly compatible with retort processing and deliver excellent scratch resistance.

We offer a wide range of different printing inks for food and general line cans. With our printing inks, you can print bold, beautiful colors and designs onto two-piece and three-piece steel food cans, general line cans, aerosol cans, and drums.

And if you’re looking for a solution for two-piece DR steel fish cans, look no further: our epoxy resin–based ink is the perfect choice for wet-on-wet printing on this type of can.
