Solvent based inks Solvent-based inks ensure greater detail definition and resistance to chemical, mechanical and external agents.

UV inks

UV inks allow high productivity thanks to their polymerization process, print stability and waste reduction.

Certifications Several series of solvent and UV inks fall within the parameters established by the European Community for safety and environment protection. The RoHS directive imposes restrictions on the use of hazardous substances in the manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment; the EN 71-3 standard contains the requisites necessary to avoid the migration of certain chemical elements, potentially harmful, into the materials used in toys production.

Thanks to these compliances, the inks can be used for screen printing of objects and games that are touched and handled by the child, without any danger to their health.
