hubergroup targets India’s evolving label market with dual-cure ink tech

The ink system combines vibrant colours, high gloss, excellent resistance properties and reliable adhesion across a wide range of label substrates

  • By ICN Bureau | October 27, 2026
As India’s label printing market evolves, converters are under increasing pressure to boost productivity, cut lead times and improve operational efficiency. Against this backdrop, hubergroup is positioning its iray Dual Cure ink system as a versatile solution designed to meet the industry’s changing production demands.
 
The ink system combines vibrant colours, high gloss, excellent resistance properties and reliable adhesion across a wide range of label substrates, delivering high print performance while giving converters greater flexibility across production environments.
 
A key differentiator is its compatibility with both conventional UV and LED UV curing systems. This allows converters to use a single ink system across different press configurations, helping simplify production and maintain flexibility as curing technologies evolve.
 
Reliable curing behaviour and stable press performance further support efficient operations by helping reduce production interruptions, start-up waste and reprints — key considerations for label manufacturers seeking to maximise output and control costs.
 
"Converters are looking for technologies that deliver both performance and investment security," says Carsten Zölzer, CCO Print Solutions at hubergroup. "With iray Dual Cure, customers can benefit from outstanding print quality and press performance today while maintaining flexibility for future technology developments."
 
Beyond its ink technology, hubergroup is highlighting the importance of local customer support backed by global expertise as it strengthens its position in India, a strategically important market in the company’s long-term growth strategy.
 
The company provides dedicated sales, technical service and application support teams in India, backed by the expertise of its international network of specialists. At Loupe India, visitors to the hubergroup stand can discuss market trends, production challenges and specific application requirements directly with the company’s experts.
 
For hubergroup, the focus extends beyond supplying inks to helping converters improve processes, strengthen productivity and build long-term operational efficiency.
 
"We want visitors to leave our stand with the understanding that hubergroup is more than an ink supplier," adds Amit Dammani, Business Head Packaging Solutions at hubergroup India. "We work closely with customers to optimise processes, improve productivity, and support their long-term business success."
