Focus on DTF Printing Indie Ink
Customer response to inks has been fantastic
New DTF ink range launched
UK ink manufacturer Indie Ink enjoyed huge success at the P&P LIVE! 2024 with the launch of its new Indie Ultra range of DTF inks for garment decorators.
Building on the success of the previous two years, Indie exhibited again at P&P LIVE! showcasing its upgraded inks. The response from customers has been fantastic with sales increasing dramatically since the show. Indie Ultra DTF inks combine years of inkjet knowledge with the highest-grade raw materials, resulting in a highly opaque white and dazzling CMYK set. All with anti-clogging technologies. The vibrant prints have excellent wash fastness, stretch capabilities and superb inkjet nozzle stability.
Indie Ink always puts the safety and environmental concerns of its inks at the forefront of development. Indie Ultra inks carry the Eco Passport from Oeko-Tex. The inks contain no harmful glycols and the glycerine used in the formulations is from a vegetable (non-palm) source and Indie offsets the carbon of all deliveries. In addition to this, Indie Ink uses titanium dioxide which is TMP free – a chemical which is of concern to health and used in most TiO2 products.
Andy Hancock, MD of Indie, explains: “At Indie, we want to provide customers with the safest and highest quality inks on the market. We believe Indie Ultra is the answer for customers looking to source a locally made formulation which is safe for use in the DTF process. Our UK manufactured product offers garment decorators a low carbon impact product, made on their doorstep with reliable stunning prints every time.”
