FOR SCREEN PRINTING TEXTILE
SilTex™ silicone textile printing inks
Natron™ SilTex™ silicone ink is a two component multi purpose screen printing silicone ink. This ink is formulated for Direct printing, Transfer printing, and 3D printing. We developed this silicone ink with the purest silicone polymers. This was to ensure that prints are durable and deliver the ultimate stretch and feel on textiles. And, unlike standard screen silicone printing inks, this ink comes ready to use. There are no toners. Just ink!
Simply, add catalyst to the ink, mix, and print. It’s that easy. This unique feature eliminates guess work, saves time, and the headache of mixing toners, so that you can focus on your business – printing. Click here for Step-by-Step printing instructions.

– In addition, these inks are PVC free.
