As inkjet printing progresses, becoming faster and more reliable, regulatory questions like food-contact (Swiss Ordinance, etc.) and health and safety in décor applications (RAL for wallpaper, etc.) play an increasingly important role. This is where UV-curable inks often reach their limits, as their composition of reactive chemistry is often not compliant with health and safety requirements.

Water-based inks can solve this challenge, with a similar application process as UV-curable inks, but without the non-compliant materials. Water-based inks are comprised of binders, dyes

Digitalisation is a subject that has now reached most industries. In print, the digital route has started in the eighties – with the introduction of laser- and inkjet printers in the office. Forty years later, inkjet print has reached the industry and speeds of 300 m / min are no longer impossible.

aNIR by adphos is used in inkjet print since 1997. Back then, Scitex, now part of Kodak, used aNIR to dry water-based inks on thermo-sensitive paper. Since then, adphos drying-concepts are used, when water needs to be evaporated – the faster the printer, the more ink is jetted, the more effective is adphos

adphos Digital Printing GmbH, one of the world’s leading experts in inkjet drying and curing, will be present at the 6th European edition of TheIJC (The Inkjet Conference) in Düsseldorf at the Crowne Plaza Düsseldorf-Neuss, Germany on October 29-30, 2019

adphos is supporting this event with our 25 years’ experience in thermal processing. Through the investigation and delivery of thousands of drying/curing projects adphos has gained a great depth of knowledge and application expertise.
