INX Digital introduces new multipurpose PDQ ink

Monday 31. January 2011 - Throughout the years, Triangle Digital Ink was associated with producing innovative new ink products. Consolidated under the INX Digital International banner in 2009, the TRIANGLE brand continues to thrive today. The newest product to reach the alternative marketplace is PDQ, a multipurpose, high performance mild solvent pigmented ink that is considered ideal for super wide format color printing systems.

The PDQ inks offer tremendous color gamut and great adhesion to multiple vinyl and banner stocks, including PVC-based substrates such as self adhesive vinyl (SAV) and banner prints. Designed for use in high resolution printers that have 32 to 42 picoliter (pl) print heads with a drop volume between 9-25 pls, these 4-color CMYK inks provide stronger cyans, richer magentas, a jetter black and a true process yellow. Keeping with INX Digital’s 10 year tradition of producing kinder products for the environment, PDQ inks are cycloxehanone free. While the company continues with the same quality control regiment that all of its inks are subject to, INX Digital has found more cost competitive pigments which are aligned with shorter ad campaigns and still boast up to one year of outdoor durability.
“This is a very good time to introduce PDQ, especially in the Latin American market,” said Alex Garcia, Director of Latin America Business Development for INX Digital International. “These new inks show how our TRIANGLE brand continues to react and adapt to competitive market conditions, yet continues to offer the highest quality in the market. This gives end users one more tool to compete in today’s extremely competitive markets. In Latin America, we are just around the corner from a large number of elections which require shorter advertising cycles and very competitive prices.”
“PDQ will give printers many different options with TRIANGLE’s huge portfolio of products. The pigment particle size is sub micron and the color is computer controlled to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency,” said Karla Witte, Vice President of Product Development for INX Digital International. “These high performance inks work on Spectra, Xaar, and Ricoh print heads, and perform extremely well on PVC type substrates. We have kept the printer in mind and they will appreciate knowing PDQ is cyclohexanone free and with a reduction in odor.”
