Flint Ink is to establish a fluid ink manufacturing company to serve the rapidly expanding Chinese package printing market. A new plant to be built in Guangzhou, not far from Hong Kong, will manufacture water and solvent based inks, and serve as a blending site for sheet-fed inks.
The building project will be carried out in two phases. Phase 1, which includes company registration, land acquisition, and detailed engineering design work, has already begun. Last year, Flint opened a news and heatset ink manufacturing centre in Beijing.
Henry Leong, president, Flint Ink Asia, says: "The Chinese packaging market is expected to grow 10 to 12 per cent in the next decade. This plant, together with the plant in Beijing, will allow us to serve printers in all of the primary printing markets in China. In addition, Guangzhou is a strategic foothold for expanding our business into the broader Southeast Asian market."
