Pigment-Based Ink

Pigment-Based Ink

Pigment-based ink contains tiny solid particles suspended in a liquid medium, unlike dye-based inks, which use colourants dissolved in the liquid. This gives pigment inks enhanced durability and makes them particularly well suited to labelling and packaging applications.

Designed for high-quality, durable printing, pigment-based ink provides excellent resistance to fading, moisture and chemicals, helping printed materials maintain their quality in demanding environments.

Key Characteristics

  • Colour Vibrancy: Delivers vibrant, high-quality colours for professional printing applications.
  • Lightfastness: Excellent resistance to fading from sunlight, making it suitable for outdoor and brightly lit environments.
  • Water Resistance: Withstands moisture, spills and cleaning processes for durable, reliable labels.
  • Chemical Resistance: Provides improved resistance to chemicals and solvents compared with dye-based inks.
  • Surface Adhesion: Offers strong adhesion to paper, plastics and metals, helping prevent smudging, peeling and deterioration.
  • Flexo Compatibility: Can closely match the appearance of flexographic inks for easy integration into existing printing workflows.
