Latex Inkjet

We were one of the first companies to beta test the HP DesignJet L65500, which uses a latex based ink to create an incredibly high quality, low cost alternative to solvent printing. Latex printing offers the following benfits:

  • Incredible outdoor durability, 3-5 years. Comparable to traditional solvent printing.
  • Brilliant color with exceptional image clarity. Impressive at even the closest viewing distances for indoor applications.
  • Near-zero VOC’s are emitted during production. We do not need to provide special ventilation or material handling for the inks, nor does our production staff need special safety equipment.
  • No noxious odors and no-post manufacture off-gassing of VOC’s. Prints can be used for interiors without creating an unhealthy environment.
  • Wide variety of printable materials available including alternatives to PVC.
