Discover how innovative Evonik silica particles can enhance ink performance in our webinar. We had explored various aspects of particle technology that helps in enhancing properties such as matting and rheology. Join us to learn how cutting-edge materials can boost the quality and efficiency of your applications.

Recorded Webinar: As the printing industry evolves, selecting the appropriate defoamer for each application becomes crucial. The ideal scenario involves having a selection of versatile defoamers with excellent food contact compliance to meet a wide range of defoaming requirements. In this webinar, we had presented a comprehensive portfolio of defoamers, emphasizing their use in pigment dispersion, letdown vehicles, and overprint varnishes. Additionally, we had highlighted the significance of food contact compliance, especially for indirect food contact packaging applications. Our discussion had covered defoamers that excel in tackling complex and challenging ink, coating, and overprint varnish systems. By the end of this presentation, you will would gain a deeper understanding of the various defoamer options available, empowering you to make informed decisions tailored to your specific application needs.

Recorded Webinar: Siloxane-based additives show unique effects in waterborne, radiation-curing and also solventborne inks and varnishes. This webinar related structural motives to effects in inks and varnishes. It had displayed how to improve ink performance by the use of highly active siloxane-based additives, but also mentioned possible limitations. Can they potentially replace fluorosurfactants?

Discover how advanced formulation tools enable high-quality inkjet coatings across diverse applications. This session has highlighted key technologies that enhance wetting, defoaming, dot sharpness, resistance, and substrate receptivity-ensuring top print performance and supporting future and sustainable innovation of inks and ink receptive coatings.

Recorded Webinar: It is essential to have a basic understanding of regulations when creating a new printing ink. While the term "regulatory" may evoke negative connotations for some, this webinar aimed to provide fundamental knowledge on the topic in a relaxed manner.

Recorded Webinar: Inks are often produced from semi-finished to address the application complexity and reduce the final production step to a blending operation. Semi-finished must not only be intermixable and compatible but also stable over the time. In this mini webinar series, challenges and solutions were presented. In the first part we have presented solutions for pigment preparations and particle stabilization, so how to control the color and appearance of an ink. Part 2, have been related to foam, slip, release and substrate wetting - so control of the physical parameters of an ink.

Keeping pace with product compliance in an increasingly complex regulatory environment is a challenge. In this webinar, we had summarized current changes and comprehensive insights on key compliance matters and sustainability topics. Digital tools were shown which help you to get the updated data you need.

Recording from September 09th, 2026

Staying ahead of product compliance in today's rapidly evolving regulatory landscape can be both complex and demanding.

In this webinar, we would guide you through the latest regulatory developments and highlight key compliance and sustainability challenges shaping the industry. You would gain practical insights and discover how innovative digital tools can empower you to access reliable, up-to-date data helping you make informed decisions with confidence.
