Printing onto performance and athletic garments presents a unique set of functional requirements to ensure ink durability and elasticity. Zodiac Libra silicone ink meets these performance-on-garment requirements for brands that desire a non-PVC formulation.
 
“We are continuing to expand the Zodiac line of water-based and silicone eco-conscious inks in response to the needs of our customers,” said Tito Echiburu, GM, PolyOne Specialty Inks. “Libra is a result of development specifically aimed at high performance fabrics.”
 
This Zodiac Libra silicone ink portfolio includes bases, additives, ready-for-use (RFU) colors, toner colors, pigment concentrates and special effect inks.
