HAVI partners with companies to address challenges across the supply chain. The firm has certified and specified Sun Chemical’s bio-renewable inks making them a recommended natural based ink solution. This ensures that food service brands and manufacturers can be assured that they are using renewable packaging ink.

Felipe Mellado, chief marketing officer of Sun Chemical, says: “Over the past three years, HAVI has worked closely with Sun Chemical to help develop natural based inks which not only contain significantly higher levels of bio-renewable resin content, but also deliver high-quality printing on fiber-based packaging substrates.

“The collaboration is another great example of why Sun Chemical has been a trusted innovator for 200 years. HAVI came to us with a unique challenge and we provided a solution that they have certified and specified. We’re also pleased to have developed a product that is in line with our own sustainability policy.”

According to HAVI, its extensive global network and relationships with package developers on all continents means that Sun Chemical’s natural based inks could be used by any of HAVI’s global partners.

“Many major food service and consumer packaged goods brands have signalled the need for packaging that delivers on their sustainability goals and objectives. We’re pleased to have Sun Chemical partner with us to improve the sustainability of packaging.” adds Shane Bertsch, vice president of innovation at HAVI.
