The Power 2H series offers excellent adhesion onto a wide range of rigid substrates such as acrylics, rigid PC, foam boards, corrugated boards, metals and glass, and its toughness provides good results under cross-hatch adhesion testing.
The UV LED market is becoming increasingly attractive, and the company has recently developed its Energy V2 series, which offers good adhesion to rigid substrates such as acrylics, rigid PC, foam boards and corrugated boards, as well as to semi-flexible substrates such as polyolefin, vinyl substitutes, PET, and PC.

Conquer inks are mild-solvent-based drop-on-demand inkjet inks, while Imaging inks are mild-solvent-based inkjet inks compatible with Konica Minolta 510 printheads.
