Newsinks

Coldset Inks

Coldset inks are paste-like offset printing inks. They are used in web-fed offset printing. Because coldset inks only dry physically by penetrating into the print substrate (paper), the process does not require an ancillary drying device and avoids emissions. Coldset inks are used predominantly in newspaper printing.

Process and pantone colors for normal and high speed presses.

Technical Properties

• High colour strength and density
• Excellent ink / water balance
• Fast start up
• Excellent ink transfer even at high speeds
• Very good rub resistance (depends on material and ink coverage)

Packaging

• 25 kg drums
• 200kg barrels
• 900kg cubes

Heatset Inks

Heatset inks dry through evaporation of their mineral oil content in drying furnaces. This is accomplished with hot air at temperatures from 120 to 150°C.

This method is used to print magazines, catalogs, newspaper inserts, etc.

Process and pantone colors for all heatset presses.

The value for tack and viscosity is set use on wide range of paper qualities from MC / LWC to SC (Super Calandered) and the better picking resistant Newsprint papers.

Technical Properties

• High colour strength and density
• High dot gain
• Glossy
• Very good rub resistance (depends on material and ink coverage)
• Fast drying
• High press performance
  

Packaging

• 200kg barrels
• 900kg cubes

UV Coldset inks

UV Coldset inks are especially developed for running on high speed coldset web presses with undershot ink duct and with an exceptional lithographic behavior and dried by UV lamps.

Process and pantone colors.

Technical Porperties 

• Stable ink transference and damping properties, even at extreme high or low ink supply
• Fast curing speed
• Very low misting
• High mileage due to optimized pigmentation

Packaging

• 18kg drums
• 200kg barrels
