Sun Chemical at PRINTING United Expo 2026: stand details

The organiser’s official event page confirms the dates and the North and Central Halls venue. Sun Chemical’s September 1 announcement places its display at Stand C2880 on Level 1. Screen Print India’s PRINTING United Expo 2026 registration guide provides more context on the wider show.

Graphics inks for Epson and Brother printheads

For paper, poster and corrugated work, Sun Chemical plans to present Streamline Kashu, a water-based pigment ink tuned for Epson i3200 printheads. Streamline Toccata will represent the company’s wider aqueous range for poster and point-of-sale corrugated applications, including clay-coated materials.

The graphics display will also cover low-viscosity UV and UV direct-to-film inks for Epson i3200 printheads. Updated Streamline ESL 2 and Ultima eco-solvent inks are tuned for Epson i3200 and Brother printheads. Sun Chemical says these low-odour inks are GREENGUARD Gold certified and supplied in cartridges, pouches or bulk formats. Several of these products also appeared in Sun Chemical’s FESPA 2026 ink programme.

Textile inks for roll-to-roll and DTF work

The textile selection includes ElvaJet Opal and ElvaJet Topaz sublimation inks, plus an upgraded Xennia Sapphire PC pigment formulation for Kyocera printheads. Sun Chemical says the Sapphire update improves fastness across a range of fabrics. Xennia Jade DTF inks add high-opacity white output, while a new textile transfer ink is intended for flexible sportswear graphics.

The company links parts of its textile range to OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT, ZDHC Road to Zero and GOTS requirements. Printers should confirm which certification applies to the exact ink, process and finished product they intend to sell. Screen Print India previously detailed the company’s digital textile ink portfolio for Asian production markets.

Label primer and industrial inkjet components

SunJet, the inkjet business of Sun Chemical and DIC, will discuss applications spanning graphics, décor, direct-to-shape, packaging and corrugated print. One named product is SunEvo EV-LWR09 WB LEP, which the company describes as its first HP Indigo-approved primer for label applications. It is specified for HP Indigo 6X00, 6K, 6K+, 8X00 and 8K presses.

The primer is intended for materials including PE, PP, coated and uncoated paper, metallised paper and wine-label stock. Screen Print India covered the SunEvo primer launch in 2025. The stand will also feature SEPAREL hollow-fibre membrane contactor modules for removing dissolved gas from aqueous, solvent and UV inks.

What should printers verify at the stand ?

The planned range spans several processes, so buyers should treat the visit as a qualification exercise rather than assume every product fits every machine. Useful checks include:

• confirming the approved printhead, printer and ink-delivery configuration;
• testing adhesion, curing and colour on the intended substrate;
• checking whether an environmental certification covers the ink or the finished application; and

• comparing cartridge, pouch and bulk supply options against expected volume.
