New member of the Association
Lysis Technologies Ltd was set up as a Research and Development laboratory to provide unique capabilities, which goes far beyond conventional printing ink and coating concepts. We design and manufacture bespoke solutions to comply with customer’s specifications. These solutions are either just ink related or complete state-of-the packaging concepts for e.g. the FMCG industry. Upon completion of the project clients asked us to manufacture the products of our research or to provide formulation guidelines for their partners. This led to the installation of a fully equipped manufacturing unit in which inks could be prepared from the basic ingredients of pigments, resins, solvents and additives.
