Avient Corporation announced its Specialty Inks business is improving its Wilflex Epic Rio Mixing System with the launch of Wilflex Epic Rio Ready-For-Use (RFU) Standard Colors, including 33 new flexible cure inks.
This portfolio of vibrant, bold, and accurate colors is available to pre-order and will be ready to ship as early as Dec. 1, 2022. This next generation of ready-for-use inks will replace the Epic Standard Color portfolio effective Feb. 1, 2023.
Wilflex Epic Rio RFU Standard Colors were created with sustainability in mind. These popular industry colors have a flexible cure profile of 266°F to 320°F (130°C to 160°C), compared to the typical 320°F curing temperature of most standard inks. This reduction in curing temperature allows screen printers to maximize output while minimizing energy use and expenses.
“The launch of Wilflex Epic Rio RFU Standard Colors emphasizes Avient Specialty Inks’ focus on sustainability,” said Tito Echiburu, GM of Avient Specialty Inks. “Rio RFU Standard Colors allow screen printers to reduce energy use while maintaining the highest quality performance for their intricate designs.”
In addition to Wilflex Epic Rio RFU Standard Colors’ wide-range curing profile, these inks can also print with excellent opacity, wet-on-wet printing capabilities, great stretch, and an optimal soft hand.
