Introduces Uvivid New
UVivid 800 Series UV Flexo Inks for Narrow Web Printing
Sericol
announces the introduction of the revolutionary UVivid 800 Series UV Flexo
inks for narrow web printing applications. The entire ink range is engineered
with the low viscosity of water-based inks, and features ultra-high density
colors. As a result, these technologically advanced UV Flexo inks offer
an unparalleled level of print performance. With faster press speeds,
finer detail, stronger and more consistent colors, UVivid 800 provides
increased productivity and higher quality, from the first print to the
last.
"We asked
our customers what they wanted from their UV Flexo inks that they weren't
getting today. The message came back loud and clear that stronger pigmentation
and low viscosity levels for each and every color were at the top of the
list," said Mark Ritchie, Marketing Manager for Sericol.
"Our entire R&D program focused on building these properties into the
new UVivid 800 Series UV Flexo, and, using patented technology originally
developed for our ultra-low viscosity UV digital inks, we succeeded in
not only meeting, but far exceeding all of our initial aims."
UVivid 800
UV Flexo ink represents the most technically advanced product on the market.
UVivid does not foam or cavitate in the ink pan and ensures optimal ink
transfer from the anilox rolls. The end results exhibit excellent color
strength and smooth ink lay down. Along with its low viscosity
specifications, UVivid produces superb image resolution and ultra-fine
dot reproduction. With little-to-no plate swelling, image consistency
is assured throughout even the longest print runs and extends the life
of plates. UVivid cures to a high-gloss finish that exhibits excellent
mar and chemical resistance.
