| Ciba focuses on adding appeal to bottles
Jane Ellis, packagingnews.co.uk, 19 March 2008
Ciba will focus on how colour and transparency can add appeal to packaging at Interpack in April.
The Swiss speciality chemicals company will show how shimmer, shine and sparkle can be added to plastic bottles using its Xymara Nordic effects, and how they can be given
clarity and protection with Ciba Irgaclear XT 386 and Shelfplus.
The firm will also show the latest version of its OnVu time-temperature indicator labels called OnVu Logistics.
This uses a colour-coded system to monitor and display time and temperature conditions at pre-defined points within the supply chain for chilled products such as meat, fish,
poultry, processed fruit and vegetables, dairy produce and ready meals.
Further features will be Ciba ColorViz systems for controlling colour from measurement to 3D visualisation, and the latest special effects possible with MetalFX, the technology
in which the firm bought an 80% stake in 2006.
Ciba will be on stand E17 in Hall 10 and stand C14 in Hall 14 at the Messe D¨¹sseldorf.
Interpack runs from 24 to 30 April. |
