Discover the key raw materials to formulate printing inks in 2025-26 for the megatrend Healthy Future
Healthy Future covers formulation trends aimed at enhancing people's health — elimination of hazardous or sensitising materials, substances of very high concern (SVHC), and reducing indoor emissions to create safer formulations and label-free products.
Focus: PFAs- & silicone cyclic-free substrate wetting agents
They improve surface wetting and adhesion, enhancing the performance of ink formulations. Safer alternatives replace PFAS and reduce cyclic silicones to non-harmful concentrations. They offer effective surface-tension reduction, ensuring uniform spreading and application, while offering health benefits.
