Unipak® SuperLitho is the premier metallic ink for sheetfed printing. Since its introduction in 1997, the ongoing development of Unipak® SuperLitho has continually met the ever increasing demands from the print community for higher speed processing, reduced set up and down time, the challenge of working with poorer quality substrates and the gradual reduction of alcohol from sheetfed printing.

Unipak® 450 Heritage was one of the original, single component metallic inks on the market and its evolution over the last 25 years has helped it to remain one of the most widely used metallic inks in the world. The Unipak® 450 Heritage series is competitively positioned in the market to offer printers easy to use metallic ink and provides excellent metallic effects under typical sheet fed printing conditions.

Unipak® Low Voc Varnishable inks were the first, truly varnishable metallic sheet fed inks to be developed. Through continual product development, the Unipak® Low Voc Varnishable ink remains the premier, metallic sheet fed ink for Waterbased and UV coating. With the increasing demands for fast turn around print, Unipak® Low VOC Varnishable inks offer printers the ability to in-line varnish a metallic ink product and allow faster subsequent processing of the printed material, due to its high solids content and extremely low Mineral Oil content. The superior setting, drying and hold out of Unipak® Low VOC Varnishable inks also delivers an excellent metallic effect on a variety of substrates.

Unipak® Waterless inks offer printers, working with waterless printing systems, the ability to print consistent, high quality metallic effects using their specialized printing equipment. The Unipak® Waterless series of inks has been specifically developed to give excellent rheological stability, with or without the use of cooled distribution rollers, delivering a sharp, clean image from the specialized plate technology used in waterless printing.
