Three years ago, ARMOR began formulating and producing industrial inks through its ARMOR Industrial Inks division (A2i). 
 
“The guiding development principle of ARMOR Industrial Inks is inextricably linked to the fundamentals of the group: namely formulation expertise, innovation and respect for the environment,” said Hubert de Boisredon, CEO of ARMOR. All the inks are water based, providing them with excellent durability. Digital printing is ideal for small runs (customization, on-demand) at competitive rates, which the classical “analog” technologies are unable to achieve.
 
The A2i business is breaking new ground as its inks have received food contact certification from ISEGA. The purpose of this certification is to confirm the conformity of a component or finished product for use in food contact situations. It covers all the A2i inks developed for printing on porous surfaces for a limited duration of four hours. 
 
“This food contact certification is fully in keeping with ARMOR’s desire to offer products that comply with demands relating to the safety of goods, people and food,” said Miro Vanek, GM of A2i.
