Assured resilience guaranteed with solvent inks
A large part of solvent inks is chemical based, which is why they lend themselves to applications and environments where more hardiness is required. This is why their resilience is more guaranteed and they are often found to be more durable than other water-based inks.
The beauty of solvent inks is that they are waterproof and are able to be printed directly onto a vast range of different medias. The extent of which is largely limited by imagination. Be it either a vinyl or rigid media, they are equally capable of producing stunning intense results. Typically, they soften the material, which allows the ink pigments to adhere chemically to the surface. The versatility of this means they are used on paper, canvas, synthetic films, painted or coated metal, PVC based boards and foam board alongside other more unusual medias such as wood.
Practically this resilience of the solvent inks means the scope of how they are used stretches from both indoor and outdoor graphic and display applications. It can be frequently seen on posters, signs, retail signage, banners, and vehicle wraps.
Long term signage and graphic solutions use solvent inks
- Ability to print directly onto substrates
- Optimum results achieved when producing long term signage and vehicle wraps
- More robust and so prints can be installed outdoors even without protective topcoat
