Odorless and food-safe technology
Titon is based on the fundamental value of dry toner technology, which, thanks to the absence of liquid (mobile) components, constitutes the safest technology for food in the field of digital production. Even when only paper is used as the main functional barrier.
Being completely odorless and tasteless, it will not affect the customer's experience when the product is consumed. These characteristics make Titon toner suitable for a wide range of applications involving direct or indirect food contact.
TITON toner also impresses with its excellent resistance to Industry Email List rubbing and scratching, water, sunlight, high temperatures and a large amount of liquid chemicals. Without any type of protective layers such as varnishes or laminates.
One of its features is the ability to withstand heat sealing temperatures of up to 220-260°C (428-500°F), a vital factor in maintaining package integrity and protecting the product.
Titon technology gives printers the opportunity to expand their capabilities by producing applications that they could not previously address through the digital process. Complementing your conventional flexo machines.
