Mono-pigmentation, which means that each basic color contains only one pigment, allows quick and easy color matching. With our free-of-charge Formula Management C-MIX 2000 data base we provide guide formulations for Pantone, HKS and RAL shades, separated into 1- or 2-component ink ranges.

Due to their physical properties, formulations with C-MIX 2000 colors, like Pantone and HKS, are primarily used for printing on white or light-colored substrates.

 

 

The standard colors, with color numbering 10, 11, 12 and so on, are our classic chromatic colors from times before Pantone and alike. Here the printer can choose the most appropriate hue from several yellow, red and blue shades. Most standard colors are manufactured with more than one pigment per shade and are very color-intensive with a medium to good opacity.

 

 

 

Printing on transparent, black, very dark or colored substrates is daily business in pad printing. For this the best possible opacity is needed. The 12 Standard HD shades (10 colors, black, white) were formulated with a very high concentration of especially opaque pigments. Standard HD shades are available in many of our ink ranges.

 

 

 

Gold, silver, bronze. We offer 4 different kinds of bronze inks: B, AB, MG and MI. 

Bronze B shows a very high opacity. It is available as print-ready ink, but also as paste or powder which can be mixed into varnish E50 of our ink ranges.
Bronze AB is a print-ready ink. It is smearing- and leafing-resistant and has a good opacity and shine.
Bronze MG (metal gloss) is very brilliant with a medium opacity.
Bronze MI is a mirror ink, for printing behind glass. Unlike the other bronze inks, bronze MI is only available as an independent ink range.
