Expanding Capacity: Allied PhotoChemical Opens a New Facility
Allied Photochemical is a manufacturer of environmentally safe, 100 percent solids, UV-curable inks, paints and coatings. According to President Dan Sweetwood, UV curing technologies allow the company to cure the coating or ink by passing the product through an intense UV light, which is beneficial in three ways.
“First, users don’t need a large oven, like traditional methods, because the required UV light will have a much smaller footprint,” Sweetwood explains. Second, users can potentially increase their line speed as the required UV exposure takes only a few seconds.”
Allied’s new facility increases capacity and efficiency while improving quality and safety.
