MagnaColours has launched a new water-based ink, which helps textile screenprinters to achieve a two-tone pearl effect. MultiChrome Pearl helps printers achieve a more dramatic color shift than the sparkle or glitter effect that other pearl inks provide, according to the company.
 
MultiChrome contains specialty pigments, helping to achieve a superior color when printed onto stretchy or lycra-containing fabrics.
 
“It is by listening to our customers that we identified the desire for a higher performance two-tone pearl ink,” said Helen Parry, managing director at MagnaColours, said. “Using Magna Labs’ expertise in creating new inks, we were able to help our customers achieve higher-quality effects.
 
“We’re pleased to be able to provide a comprehensive range of special effects water-based inks which achieve the best results, rendering the use of harmful chemically based alternatives unnecessary,” Parry added.
 
The MultiChrome range, which includes a variety of different colors, launched last month, and is available through distributors. As with all of Magna’s inks, the MultiChrome range conforms to the highest levels of environmental scrutiny.
