Product Development
Our product development team is committed to creating innovative, high-performance energy curing solutions that address industry challenges and meet customer-specific requirements. By leveraging state-of-the-art research and a deep understanding of formulation science, we develop photoinitiators, resins, and additives that offer reliable curing, durability, and sustainability. Our collaborative approach enables us to design customized products that align with your performance standards and regulatory needs.
IGM Resins has an extensive patent portfolio protecting its intellectual property. Our patented polymeric low-migration photoinitiators became the standard for use in UV food packaging inks, and positioned this technology for its current dominance in sensitive packaging. IGM’s latest innovations in the market include:
- Toluene free and Specific High Quality grade Photomer® monomers – address environmental concerns
- Esacure® photoinitiators for sensitive packaging - particularly developed for application where low migration values are required.
- Photoinitiators for UV-LED curing formulated systems.
