illumex® Thermal Inkjet Inks

Print Smarter. Run Faster. Perform better.

illumex® inks are built on proprietary polymer resin technology — a fundamental departure from conventional TIJ.  Rather than relying on absorption, illumex® inks are forumulated to bond with a wide variety of substrate surfaces, delivering exceptional adhesion on plastics, films, foils, metal, glass, wood, pulp, and coated materials.

Every aspect of illumex® ink formulation is optimized using advanced fluid dynamics — ensuring consistent drop formation and placement, stable high-speed jetting performance, and controlled spread for crisp, readable codes.

This precision engineering allows illumex® inks to deliver high-speed production with exceptional print clarity, even with complex barcodes, graphics, logos and human readable variable data.  Contact a sales rep today for help with selecting just the right ink for your application.
