Offset Ink and Additives
Offset Ink & Additives for Professional Printing
Offset ink is formulated to perform within the ink-water balance unique to offset printing. It must transfer smoothly from plate to blanket to substrate while maintaining color strength and proper drying. Whether oil-based, soy-based, or UV-curable, every formulation delivers the consistency commercial printers depend on.
Oil-Based, Soy-Based & UV Inks
Oil-based inks remain the industry standard for color vibrancy and durability, while soy-based alternatives provide a renewable, low-VOC solution. For non-porous or specialty substrates, UV and LED-curable inks cure instantly under light for fast turnaround and excellent adhesion.
Color Systems & Pigment Quality
Offset printers use both CMYK process and PMS spot color inks for complete color control. High-density pigments and precise ink-water balance maintain vibrancy, sharpness, and reliability across long press runs.
Environmental Progress
Modern ink chemistries are engineered for sustainability, featuring low-VOC compounds, biodegradable oils, and easy de-inking for recycling. These formulations meet environmental standards without sacrificing print quality.
