NUtec Digital’s New Fluorescent Inks For Polyesters Make An Impression With Colours That Glow And Pop
Experience NUtec's latest FLUORESCENT PINK and YELLOW water-based inks for polyester-based substrates.
The Aquamarine AQ10-DST-HC ink is a dye sublimation ink developed for use on Epson® DX4, DX5, DX6, DX7, 5113, PrecisionCore TFP, XP600 & EPS3200 printheads.
It is now available with fluorescents for an expanded colour gamut delivering hues that glow in daylight and pop under blacklight.
Digital ink manufacturer, NUtec reports an expanding water-based dye sublimation ink range with the latest addition of fluorescent options.
Customers can now experience a wider, brighter colour palette in the company’s Aquamarine water-based offering with the addition of both fluorescent yellow and fluorescent pink.
The Aquamarine AQ10-DST-HC ink is a dye sublimation range developed for use on Epson® DX4, DX5, DX6, DX7, 5113, PrecisionCore TFP, XP600 & EPS3200 printheads, and is optimised for transfer printing on coated and uncoated transfer paper.
High density colour leads to reduced ink consumption with faster print speeds for increased productivity and vibrant images, keeping costs down and output up.
Recommended applications include activewear, interior décor textiles, graphic arts and soft signage using substrates with a minimum 60% polyester content.
NUtec sales and marketing director, Neil Green notes: “We are seeing an exponential increase in demand for digital textile printing as companies look for more sustainable and waste-reducing ways to do business into the future. The shift from traditional to digital printing in the textile industry allows for rapid small sample testing, short runs with quick turnaround times and less stock-piling at warehouses. This is preferred in the fashion and interior décor industries as it will result in general waste reduction, while time to market is improved. This trend is encouraging for NUtec as we choose to invest in new products and innovations for this sector, the latest being our fluorescent specialty inks offering.”
