Inks for digital textile printing
Water-based and biodegradable
People’s awareness of sustainability and environmental protection is changing. Consumers want to know where the products they buy come from and under what conditions they were produced. In order to meet this awareness, the textile printing market must change sustainably and significantly.
aeoon cares about the environment and aims for sustainable business solutions, which is why our machines use 100% water-based inks.
Water-based inks are made by suspending a biodegradable pigment in a water base. This composition is significantly more environmentally friendly than inks produced in other ways.
To ensure consistent print quality and further optimise ink consumption, our machines are constantly tested at the Innovation Center at our headquarters in Austria. Of course, we share the results with our customers so that their products remain environmentally and economically sound.
Another great advantage for our customers is that aeoon inks are approved by GOTS and Oeko-Tex and meet the highest quality standards.
Expand your colour space
New possibilities through additional process colours
Conventional DTG printers print in CMYK colour space. This means that colours outside this colour range cannot be reproduced. As a result, it is almost impossible to print certain colour values. As a solution, aeoon therefore offers additional process colours, such as RED and GREEN, in addition to the standard colours cyan, magenta, yellow, black and white.
Advantages of GECs (Gamut Expansion Colours):
- Larger colour scale
- Improved transition between colours
- Print result comes closer to RGB design
- Pantone colours and spot colours are easier to achieve
- More homogeneous printing results
