INX International Ink Co. will display its entire product line, including INXhrc natural-based and Triangle brand digital inks, when it exhibits for the first time at Graphics Canada, April 11-13 at The International Centre in Toronto.

“As North America’s third largest ink manufacturer, the majority of our Canadian customers have been using INX products for many years. However, we decided to exhibit at Graphics Canada 2019 for the printers who may not be aware of the complete commercial offset and digital offerings we have available, including some that are more sustainable and user-friendly,” says Renee Schouten, INX director of marketing.

INXhrc natural-based water, solvent and conventional offset inks offer brand owners and food packaging providers a new solution to consider. INXhrc provides a double benefit as a safe alternative that reduces regulatory risk, and also improves production efficiencies for printers and converters. Using fewer chemicals compared to traditional inks, INXhrc contains no allergens, nanomaterials, flurochemicals, fanal pigments, heavy metals, latex or PTFE.

“Using clean, bio-renewable and sustainable ingredients, we have reduced CO2 emissions and annually replaced over two million pounds of petro-chemically derived resins, waxes and additives,” says Schouten. “Our commitment to offering safe and sustainable product solutions gives printers and brand owners added incentive to achieve their own sustainability goals. We also understand the importance of the impact we can have on consumer safety, brand marketability and the environment throughout a product’s lifecycle. That’s why these inks lend themselves to measurable and reportable CO2 savings.”

Schouten adds that many pressrooms around the world using INXhrc have realized performance improvements. When used in tandem with high strength color concentrates, it provides the strongest finished inks available with excellent resolubility and transfer properties. Printers have reported increased ink mileage and better production efficiency, resulting in less resource consumption and waste generation.

Triangle brand digital inks offer the utmost in quality and cost efficiency. INX develops ink sets with fast drying times that offer a wide color gamut and a high chemical resistance at a lower cost compared to OEM inks. Triangle inks are available in eco-friendly, bag-in-box packaging and are supported by Worldwide Outdoor durability and Ink Train warranties.
