Boston Industrial Solutions, Inc. has several types of inks to print on ceramic materials. Each ink series is made for different printing methods. These types include:
Pad printing is a printing process that uses a silicone pad to transfer a 2D image from a plate onto a 3D object. This printing method ensures excellent printing, marking, and decoration results on ceramic materials. Learn more about the pad printing process.
Screen printing, on the other hand, uses a screen and a squegee to transfer an image to an object. This printing process is one of the most popular printing processes in the world. Screen printing is widely used in drinkware, promotional products, and industrial applications. Like pad printing, Boston Industrial Solutions, Inc. provides the best screen printing inks for ceramics.
Lastly, let us review digital printing. Many companies are shifting towards sustainable printing. These companies are searching for alternatives to solvent-based inks. As a result, we have developed excellent UV LED-curable screen printing and digital inks for this substrate.
Our digital printing inks for ceramics are durable and versatile. These inks bring the quality of digital printing to life. Additionally, they provide an economical alternative to traditional pad and screen printing.
The Natron 314 UV inkjet ink and the Natron 270 UV inkjet ink are excellent UV inks for ceramics and other materials. Additionally, these UV inks are perfect for use with UV printers, both flat bed and cylindrical inkjet printing machines. For permanent UV ink adhesion to ceramic, use Natron G1 UV adhesion promoter. This digital primer enables UV and LED-curable inks to bond permanently to ceramics, tiles, and glass materials.
At Boston Industrial Solutions, Inc., we have both solvent and UV screen printing inks for ceramics and tiles.
For solvent inks, we offer the MG series and the GX series inks. For those looking for low-VOC screen printing inks, we offer the UVMK series, a UV LED-curable ink. All these inks are alcohol, dishwasher, scratch, and chemical resistant.
The MG Series ink is also used for pad printing on ceramic materials. In addition to ceramic and tiles, this pad printing ink for cosmetic packaging is suitable for a wide range of printing applications, including glass, metals, and hard plastics. This ink features very high opacity, a fast-drying time, and a high gloss. Promotional, glass decoration, cosmetic, automotive, military, and consumer industries prefer this ink because it meets and exceeds strict compliance requirements. Additionally, the MG Series is dishwasher-safe (2000 commercial cycles). Also, this ink can withstand temperatures below -20°C, chemicals, alkaline, water, and abrasion tests. Lastly, the MG series is compliant with RoHS, EN71, CPSIA, REACH, and many other industry regulatory standards.
