Sun Chemical has joined forces with T+ink to establish an organization T+sun to offer conductive ink solutions for packages.
The new organization will use Sun Chemical's global R&D, technical support, manufacturing infrastructure, supply chain, marketing and sales, as well as electronic materials, packaging and brand protection groups to develop the ink solutions.
T+ink is said to develop printed ink for touch and motion-activated applications, which will replace switches, wires, buttons, speakers, lights, sensors, microphones, antennas and batteries.
The applications will be used in various industries, comprising toys, packaging, promotional products.
Sun Chemical chief marketing officer Felipe Mellado said that T+ink's technology is expected to create an opportunity for the company's customers.
"The innovation we provide through our own research and development, and through strategic partnerships with T+ink and others, can give our customers a complete solution that enables best-in-class packaging designs worldwide now and in the future," Mellado added.
