Xaar plc announced a partnership with Italian ink manufacturer Metco Srl to deliver Xaar-approved Solvent Soluble Inks (SSI) for use in GS12C and GS40C variants of the Xaar 1003 printhead and the Xaar 2001 GS12C.
Established in 1990 in Bologna, Italy, Metco was the first company in the world able to develop a set of completely soluble inks without using gold for magenta. These inks are used in the production of highly polished Lappato tiles found in commercial high traffic locations such as shopping malls and public buildings.
“We are delighted to be working with Xaar. The two companies share a philosophy of delivering innovation to the ceramics market,” said Metco’s Graziano Vignali.
Xaar-approved inks offer tile manufacturers a range of benefits such as improved print performance, print reliability and improved throughput.
