DuPont Digital Printing, an industry leader in the development and manufacture of digital inks, today showcased its full line of aqueous-based DuPont™ Artistri® inks for digital textile printing at SGIA 2008 - The Specialty Printing and Imaging Expo, Georgia World Congress Center (Booth #135).
“We are excited to present our extensive and still growing portfolio of Artistri® inks -- including the new and improved Artistri® P5000+ Series inks -- to SGIA's audience of specialty imaging innovators who come to the show looking for new ideas, applications, products and technologies for digital imaging,” said Michael Lazzara, global business manager -- DuPont™ Artistri®. “The Artistri® P5000+ inks for direct-to-garment printing feature DuPont cutting-edge white ink and process colors that deliver rich, long-lasting color enhanced to provide even greater wash performance and improved printability over a wider range of substrates.”
Artistri® inks are available in both pigment and dye based formulations that combine DuPont proprietary pigment dispersion, polymer and ink formulation technology. Because they are formulated with the same dyes and pigments used in conventional textile printing, Artistri® inks offer superior results for digital textile printing - excellent fastness properties, brilliant colors and robust print reliability.
