WB Standard Water-Based Ink
Our standard water-based screen printing ink uses an acrylic polymer emulsion binder with aqueous dispersion pigments, offering an environmentally responsible alternative to plastisol with zero PVC and reduced VOC emissions. The ink penetrates the fabric fiber structure rather than sitting as a surface film, producing the characteristic soft hand feel and breathability that water-based printing is prized for in premium fashion and retail apparel. It requires proper fixation through heat curing (150–165°C) or air drying with a crosslinker for full washfastness.
Key Applications
- Eco-conscious fashion and retail apparel brands
- Soft-hand print decoration on cotton and linen garments
- Premium T-shirt printing for boutique and direct-to-consumer brands
- Markets requiring OEKO-TEX and eco-certification compliant inks
Frequently Bought Together
WB High Opacity Ink
Water-based high opacity ink combines an elevated TiO2 pigment load with a thick acrylic binder matrix to achieve maximum light-blocking coverage on dark fabrics while retaining the environmental profile and softer hand of water-based systems.
Screen PrintingWB Anti Migration Base
Water-based anti-migration base is a specially formulated barrier underbase used as the first print layer on polyester and poly-cotton blend garments to block reactive dye sublimation from contaminating the water-based color layers printed above.
Screen PrintingWB Discharge Ink
Water-based discharge ink contains a reducing agent activator — typically zinc formaldehyde sulfoxylate (ZFS) or the formaldehyde-free alternative sodium sulfoxylate — that chemically destroys the reactive dyes in the fabric itself, leaving the natural undyed fiber color visible within the printed area.
