The subject of Ms. Ramsey's presentation was the use of GRAS (generally recognized as safe) bio-based materials in UV-cured coatings.

"The Waterborne Symposium is an internationally recognized event attended by global industry leaders," said Ramsey. "I was honored to be a speaker and pleased with the opportunity to discuss the addition of a new class of materials into the UV-curable toolkit. We have opened the door to UV-curable coatings that are not only safe to use directly in contact with food for applications such as food packaging, but also can be integrated into multiple applications across the industry."
