Nazdar’s inks sold to OEM’s, and those also sold under the Lyson digital ink brand, incorporate premium grade pigments and resins to ensure superior outdoor durability, plus superior pigment dispersion technology to allow optimum printing performance. Actual and accelerated weather testing has demonstrated that Nazdar inkjet inks withstand two years exterior exposure without a significant change in density or colour variance.

The approval is significant for Nazdar and demonstrates its growing commitment to the digital ink market. The company is a leading manufacturer of screen printing inks, and in addition offers an extensive range of aqueous, solvent, sublimation, oil-based and UV-curable digital inks for wide and grand format digital printers.
“The digital ink market is an increasingly important part of Nazdar’s business,” commented Stewart Partridge, OEM and Business Development Director for Nazdar. “Our strategy is to grow our OEM inkjet business significantly and we recognise that we need to combine our extensive expertise with other leading players in the inkjet sector, such as Xaar, to deliver a high-quality, proven and reliable solution.”
