Water-based Inks

Water-based inks are environmentally sustainable printing formulations composed of water-soluble pigments and aqueous carriers, providing an effective eco-friendly alternative to solvent-based ink systems. Optimally specified for corrugated packaging applications, water-based inks exhibit the highest surface tension characteristics among available ink technologies.

  • 100% environmentally sustainable formulation
  • Superior surface tension properties
  • Optimized for corrugated substrate printing

Water-based inks are formulated from water-soluble pigments dispersed in aqueous carrier systems, delivering effective print performance while maintaining complete environmental compliance and sustainability credentials. These ink formulations represent the most eco-responsible printing solution available, eliminating volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants associated with traditional solvent-based ink systems. Ideally suited for corrugated packaging substrates, water-based inks demonstrate superior surface tension characteristics compared to alternative ink technologies, promoting excellent substrate wetting, color transfer efficiency, and print definition on porous corrugated board surfaces. The aqueous formulation enables easy cleanup, reduces environmental impact throughout the production process, and supports brands pursuing sustainable packaging initiatives without compromising print quality or color performance.
