Vinylcure LED UV Inks for cards
Gans Ink and Supply Company introduces our just released, Vinylcure LED ink system. Designed for the production of plastic cards on most presses utilizing LED curing systems, these inks can be designed to either wet trap, or dry trap, in line. This product exhibits the highest adhesion numbers in the card manufacturing industry, even when printing 400% or more coverage. We suggest pretesting substrates and overlay for adhesion. This product is developed specifically for PVC, but should also work on polycarbonate, styrene, and other plastic substrates with proper surface treatment. If you are considering purchasing an LED offset press to produce plastic cards, please give the Gans team a call.
