Industry market

LIXOL, a Groupe Berkem subsidiary, specialises in the formulation of alkyd resins, particularly for inks. LIXOL’s innovation is aimed towards markets seeking technical performance and commitment. For this reason, Lixol has developed a comprehensive range of alkyd resins for printing inks. Lixolink® alkyd resins, based on plant oils, improve the viscosity, wetting power and drying time of letterpress, offset (webfed/heatset/sheetfed/coldset) and metal decoration inks. By formulating printing inks using Lixolink® binders, a high quality aesthetic result can be ensured for all catalogues, magazines, books, advertisements, newspapers and packaging, which have traditionally been printed on a regular basis.

Groupe Berkem delivers professional, innovative and sustainable solutions to the industrial market that meet the challenges and requirements of this sector. Our R&D teams work on all of these topics in order to identify future development opportunities across all of these sectors.
