UV Ink
UV-curable inks are 100% solids, solvent-free formulations containing photo-initiator compounds that trigger instant polymerization and cross-linking of the ink binder when exposed to UV light or LED-UV radiation during printing, producing immediately dry, scratch-resistant prints with no evaporation or emission. Because UV inks adhere through mechanical bonding to rigid substrates rather than absorption, they print on virtually any hard or flexible surface including glass, metal, acrylic, wood, ceramic tile, and uncoated paper. Excellent chemical and abrasion resistance makes UV prints suitable for demanding industrial and point-of-purchase display applications.
Key Applications
- Rigid substrate printing on glass, acrylic, wood, metal, and foam board
- Point-of-purchase displays and promotional product decoration
- Industrial labels and durable surface marking
- Textured, raised UV varnish effects on packaging and graphic arts
Frequently Bought Together
Eco Solvent Ink
Eco-solvent inks use mild organic ester solvents — primarily lactate or adipate esters — as the primary carrier for solvent-compatible pigment dispersions, enabling printing on a wide range of uncoated and solvent-receptive vinyl, banner, and specialty media with reduced odor and lower toxicity compared to hard solvent formulations.
Digital PrintingLatex Ink
Latex inks use water as the primary carrier for an aqueous polymer latex dispersion that forms a durable, flexible, and odorless film on media surfaces when dried and thermally cured by the integrated heater system of HP Latex and compatible printers.
Digital PrintingEco Printer Ink
Eco printer inks are water-based, low-VOC pigment or dye formulations engineered for wide-format and desktop inkjet printers used in graphic and advertising applications where environmental compliance and operator safety are priorities alongside print quality.
