Expertise & Capabilities - Inkjet Inks

Sensient Imaging Technolgies has a long history developing custom ink for a variety of specialized applications. Our chemists are experts in developing dyes, pigments, aqueous pigments, solvents, and oil-based inks for use on natural and polymer substrates.

Since 1985, Sensient Imaging Technologies has developed hundreds of different inks for writing instruments, impact and non-impact applications, and coding and marking inks. But the manufacturing behind all these different applications share a common spirit of collaboration and integrity. Additionally, our customers benefit from the following:

Our experience

Today's ink needs are as diverse as the natural and synthetic substrates on which they're printed. We're at the forefront of desktop, wide-format, textile, and industrial inkjet ink formulation. Our work also includes solvent pigment and binder chemistry for wire and cable marking.

A partnership based on communication

We know that developing a component as critical as ink requires an understanding of the entire printing and application system. That's why we continually communicate with our customers--from initial development through application testing--and scale our manufacturing accordingly.

Our disciplined development processes

The cornerstone of our custom ink formulation business is a well-defined, highly disciplined development process. This fully documented process ensures quality and efficiency in the development cycle by creating measurable goals and compressing time-to-market.

Flexible manufacturing capabilities

Sensient Imaging Technologies is here to help you in many ways. We have spacious modern facilities for aqueous dye and pigment ink production and a dedicated facility for producing solvent-based inks. Our flexible manufacturing process makes both scale-up and large-scale production orders possible.
