olorBlast has introduced TruDTF Ink, a premium low-viscosity, water-based pigment ink aimed at DTF workflows with a two-year print head protection plan. TruDTF also offers a market-leading two-year shelf life, enhancing inventory stability and reducing waste. It can be used for a broad range of fabric applications with sub-micron nano-filtration ensuring consistent, clog-free jetting.
With stable jetting performance and faster nozzle recovery, shops can
spend less time on daily upkeep. The two-year protection package covers one compatible Epson print head per printer, and if a print head fails due to ink-related issues, ColorBlast provides a free replacement with no out-of-pocket expense upon approved claim.
To maintain eligibility for print head protection, users must run TruDTF exclusively within the same fluid path, follow standard storage guidelines, and perform daily nozzle checks, cap-station cleaning, and OEM flush cycles.
TruDTF Ink now in the ColorBlast range
benefits to both companies while ensuring continued availability of software products that are important to the textile printing industry.”
Fiery plans to continue with the leading Inèdit brand as an independent product suite, supporting current and prospective partners and customers with its strong software development capabilities and deep understanding of the digital textile printing industry.
Financial details and a timeline for completion of this transaction are not available at the time of writing.
Kornit strengthens with new CFO and $100m buyback plan
K
ornit Digital has announced a major leadership change alongside a new $100 million share repurchase programme, signalling strengthened confidence in its long-term strategy. Lauri Hanover, the company’s chief financial officer, will step down in mid-December for personal reasons after a decade of service to Kornit. CEO Ronen Samuel praised her “significant contributions” in building Kornit’s financial foundation and supporting its shift toward sustainable, profitable growth.
Assaf Zipori has been appointed as Hanover’s successor. He joins with extensive financial and operational experience across technology and manufacturing, most recently serving as Global CFO of Nano Dimension following its acquisition of Markforged.
Zipori said he was “thrilled” to join the company during a “transformative moment” in its evolution.
The newly authorised $100 million share repurchase programme enhances Kornit’s ongoing capital-allocation strategy, following $165 million in buybacks since 2023. The company said the move reflects confidence in its business model, progress on recurring revenues, and strengthened profitability as it continues to drive digital transformation in fashion and textile production.
