Presstek Inc. introduced a waterless ink, called DI-Dry, that is optimized for its 52DI and 34DI presses, as well as the Ryobi 3404 DI and Heidelberg QMDI. According to the company, DI-Dry is designed to stay open in the ink fountains for up to a week.
“It has a heavier ink pigmentation density, which means using less ink while achieving truer colours and denser solids – in effect, getting more miles per gallon,” said Kathy McHugh, Presstek’s VP and CMO. “Using less ink also facilitates a faster drying time for faster job turn around. And, in line with Presstek’s commitment to environmental sustainability, DI-Dry contains more than 50 percent renewable content, also known as bio-derived raw materials.”
In addition to the process colour set, Presstek DI-Dry inks are available in basic Pantone colours, special mix PMS, metallic and fluorescent colours, as well as varnishes.
