INX to Showcase New Green, Sustainable Inks & Coatings, plus SPEC RTP3000 Dispensing System
SCHAUMBURG, IL—September 3, 2008—Web offset or sheetfed, virtually any print operation will find new and enhanced ink and coating products as well as money-saving systems from INX International Ink Co. (booth #417) during Graph Expo. America’s most comprehensive printing industry trade show, Graph Expo runs from October 26 - 29 at Chicago’s McCormick Place.
“We can help printers overcome an increasing array of challenges, energy costs and environmental issues for example, along with the ever-present client demands,” noted INX President and CEO Rick Clendenning. “In our booth, they can learn the latest on enhanced, performance-proven inks and new replenishable-resource formulations, plus waste-reducing systems that directly impact their bottom line.”
INX specialists will conduct demonstrations and discuss featured products, including:
New EcoTech™ process colors will be introduced at Graph Expo. Extremely environmentally friendly, they are very low in petroleum solvents/VOC’s (less than 3 percent by weight) and rich in renewable vegetable oils (over 45 percent). They deliver superb dot sharpness, press stability, with fast set and dry times; also, they conform to ISO 2846-1 and are suitable for GRACoL G7 certification. These “stay-open” inks reduce waste and wash-ups, can be left in the fountain overnight, and are an ideal match for aqueous coating or OP Varnishing in-line and foil stamping, or UV coating after 48-72 hours.
New EcoPure® HPJ Soy process inks: Even more environmentally friendly than popular EcoPure HPJ, printers can use the Soy Seal with these premium quality inks that come up to color quickly on-press, reducing waste. Printers will experience superior ink transfer, high trap percentages and fast set times, and can expect excellent performance with FM or conventional screening. Process color hues comply with ISO 2846-1 and are suitable for GRACoL G7 certification.
Fusion™ UV Hybrid Process Inks: See why Fusion has taken over so many press rooms since its introduction, enabling printers to go from conventional into hybrid runs without reconfiguring presses or conditioning rollers. These environmentally friendly inks deliver dot sharpness, color balance and press stability. Comparable to the best conventional litho inks, they offer exceptional adhesion to multiple substrates including styrene, PVC and static cling. Fusion is formulated to be VOC-free and qualifies for the Soy Seal, too.
