Atlantic Tech Services has launched a new range of wide-format solvent inks suitable for indoor and outdoor uses and can withstand long periods of outdoor exposure, the company said. The inks are also said to be environmentally friendly without compromising on print quality.

Atlantic said the inks were an alternative to Roland Eco-Sol Max, Mutoh Eco Ultra and Mimaki ES-3 Eco Solvent ink formulations.

The ink is available in 440ml cartridges or one-litre bottles for use with the ColourSure Eco Bulk Inking system aimed at improving productivity and reducing operating costs. The range comprises CMYK, light cyan, light magenta and two whites.

“The inks allow users to utilise existing colour profiles to avoid the costs and downtime in creating new profiles,” said director Keith Pratt.

“They are targeted not just at companies in the signmaking industry, but businesses with a digital department and commercial printers with wide-format gear.  Also, the inks flow through print systems easier, so the amount of in-house cleaning has gone down.”
