Roland DG Europe Sets New Standard for Safer Digital Printing with GBL-Free TR3 Inks
November 2025 – Roland DG Europe has announced a significant advancement in printing safety and sustainability with its new TR3 eco-solvent inks.
Now powering the TrueVIS XG-640 printer/cutter, these inks are 100% free of gamma-butyrolactone (GBL), a solvent classified as hazardous under EU regulations.
This innovation addresses the growing demand for safer, greener printing solutions without compromising on performance.
The new GBL-free formulation of TR3 inks ensures safer handling for operators and promotes cleaner air quality in the workplace.
This makes the TrueVIS XG-640 an ideal solution for sensitive indoor environments, including schools, hospitals, and offices.
By eliminating GBL, Roland DG Europe not only complies with stringent EU environmental standards but also reinforces its commitment to the health and well-being of print professionals.
In addition to being GBL-free, the TR3 inks have achieved GREENGUARD Gold certification, signifying they meet rigorous standards for low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions.
This certification further enhances the appeal for businesses aiming to reduce their environmental footprint while producing the vibrant, high-quality output that the TrueVIS series is known for.
The inks are available in multiple configurations, including dual CMYK for speed or an expanded 8-colour set for unparalleled colour accuracy.
"Our goal was to redefine responsible printing," said Roland DG Europe. "With the GBL-free TR3 inks, we are offering our customers a solution that protects their staff and the environment while delivering the exceptional colour and performance they expect from a TrueVIS device. This is a crucial step forward for the industry.".
The TrueVIS XG-640, combined with the new TR3 inks, provides businesses with unmatched productivity and versatility for applications such as signage, vehicle wraps, banners, and stickers.
This development solidifies Roland DG's position as a leader in creating innovative and responsible digital printing technology.
