Nutec Digital Ink Sets New Standard In Textile Printing With Aquamarine AQ10-DSS
Cape Town – February 2026– NUtec Digital Ink, a global leader in the development and manufacture of digital printing inks, has today highlighted its latest innovation, the Aquamarine AQ10-DSS.
This new water-based dye sublimation ink has been engineered to deliver vibrant, long-lasting prints on polyester-based textiles and coated substrates, addressing the increasing market demand for high-performance and sustainable printing solutions.
The ink formulation ensures exceptional colour performance, characterised by excellent rub and light fastness, which is critical for products exposed to environmental stressors.
In a move to provide designers and print service providers with greater creative flexibility, the new range includes Fluorescent Yellow and Fluorescent Pink options.
These additions allow for the creation of bold, eye-catching designs that retain their vibrancy under both natural and UV light, offering a competitive edge in the visual communication and fashion sectors.
Furthermore, the ink delivers excellent results on tacky transfer papers and is fully compatible with both coated and uncoated transfer papers, allowing for seamless integration into existing workflows.
Reflecting the company’s dedication to sustainability and ethical manufacturing practices, the Aquamarine AQ10-DSS has been awarded the ECO PASSPORT certification by OEKO-TEX®.
This certification verifies that the ink meets strict criteria for sustainable textile production, aligning with the industry's shift towards greener solutions.
The product is also backed by the NUtec Digital Ink IDS Warranty, providing customers with assurance regarding reliability and performance.
