Printing Inks

Printing inks are specialized liquid or paste substances used to transfer color onto various surfaces during printing. They contain pigments or dyes for color, binders to adhere the color to the surface, solvents to control flow and drying, and sometimes other additives to improve durability or finish. The ink is applied to a printing plate or roller, and then pressed onto paper, fabric, or other materials, creating images or text. Different inks are formulated for specific printing methods, such as offset, digital, or screen printing, ensuring vibrant, durable results suited to their intended use.
