CTI: Sun-powered inks for cans

Chromatic Technologies’ expanded line of Sun Light sun-powered inks for the metal deco/can industry are photochromic inks that provide fast kinetics which turn on rapidly when sunlight hits it, repeatability which enables the ink to turn on and off, a broad color spectrum palette, and durability in the sun.
