FOOD-SAFE/LOW MIGRATION PROCESS
Published by Zanardo Luciano in Subjects of interest · 25 March 2022
Process stability is the key to consistent, reliable low-migration printing.
UV LED systems ensure every packaging run receives the same consistent, uniform UV output for repeatable results.
The term Low-Migration (LM) describes a process for UV-cured food-safe or medical packaging to ensure all materials utilized do not transfer through the package in quantities that would affect the final product safety, odor or taste.
To meet food-safe requirements, UV LED offers excellent through cure due to the long UV-A wavelength, which penetrates through to the media. LED technology provides a uniform output across the print width which again ensures fully cured product. All of these benefits improve the GMP for manufacturers, with confidence that their products consistently meet food-safe process requirements.
