New creative colors toner line launched by Xeikon

Tuesday 25. August 2015 - Xeikon (stand 9C50/B50/C60) will introduce two new toners, MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver, at Labelexpo Europe.

The two special silver metallic toner colors will enable more creative possibilities for designers as well as label and package printers and converters using Xeikon’s digital printing technologies. The luxury-look MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver toners are the first products in the new Xeikon Creative Colors toner group, which recognizes and explores the added value that special effects bring to label and packaging print, especially in the consumer products arena.

MatteSilver offers the luxury of a rich metal finish to the print substrate while PalladiumSilver – uniquely available for digital print in the Xeikon portfolio – features a speckled silver sparkle for extra textural interest.

The new MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver toners complement Xeikon’s toner portfolio that includes:

– Standard colors (CMYK)
– Off-the-shelf spot colors which allow for a gamut expansion beyond CMYK
– Custom spot colors allowing to make unique colors based upon LAB values
– Technical colors which perform specific function like one-pass opaque white, UV reflecting clear, or security colors which reflect to a specific spectrum or contain certain taggents

Creative Colors is a new group within this portfolio and these toners offer the same benefits as all of Xeikon’s toner in terms of food safety, lightfastness and eco-friendliness.

The MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver toners will be commercially available as of Labelexpo Europe and show visitors will be able to see them in action on the Xeikon Cheetah press.
