Solvent-Based TIJ Ink
Our solvent-based TIJ inks for HP and Funai printheads provide new solutions to old problems encountered when printing on metal, plastic, and other non-porous substrates. Water‑based inks just aren’t made to print well on certain substrates, but that’s where solvent‑based inks have true value. We’ve expanded our array of high-quality solvent‑based inks to include new applications:
- Metal
- Varnishes
- Plastics
- Foils
- Glass
- Glossy Paper and Cardboard
