Crisp, colourful and vibrant prints are the goal of any printer and an essential part of achieving that is having the right inks. Mimaki SS21 inks fit the bill. Not only do they produce bright, luminous and radiant colours they are also highly weather-resistant, scratch-resistant and quick-drying, making them a great choice for printers who want to improve productivity without compromising on quality.
They’re ideal for both indoor and outdoor products with excellent longevity while being relatively reasonably priced when compared to other solvent inks.
First Class Colour Results
Mimaki SS21 ink has been used for a number of years and has gained a reputation for durability and colour reliability. They were originally available in CMYK with light cyan and magenta but the ink range has been expanded to include light black, white, orange and metallic colours. They are well-known for producing great results that stand the test of time – up to three years unlaminated and even longer where lamination is applied.
White and silver inks have broadened the expressiveness of the prints you can produce too. A print combination of colour and silver ink allows a more vibrant expression of the metallic colours. Similarly, colour printing on white underlayers provides a more vivid end product.
Fast Drying Times
The ink is dispersed in an organic solvent and is quick drying due to the volatility of the solvent. The quick-drying nature of SS21 ink makes it ideal for printing on PVC and so it’s extensively used for signage both indoors and outdoors.
The ink also boasts superior adhesion to media, can be cut very soon after printing and eliminates peeling when cut. The ink’s quick-drying capability not only reduces production time but also minimises the risk of smudges or imperfections, ensuring consistent quality with every job.
High Durability
Mimaki SS21 inks are built to last. Their superior durability makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. These inks are resistant to fading, scratching, and weather conditions, ensuring your prints look great for years. Whether it’s a vehicle wrap exposed to the elements or a banner in a high-traffic area, Mimaki SS21 inks deliver long-lasting results that will keep clients happy.
Cost-Effective Performance
While high-quality prints are essential, managing costs is equally important for any print business. Mimaki SS21 ink cartridges strike the perfect balance between quality and affordability.
Their efficient formulation means less ink is needed to achieve stunning results, reducing overall ink consumption. Additionally, the cartridges are designed for easy installation and replacement, minimising downtime and keeping your operations running smoothly.
They also come in two sizes – 440cl and 220cc – to accommodate varying production needs.
Eco-Friendly Performance
The SS21 is more eco-friendly than traditional solvents with low emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and low odour, making them safer for operators and reducing the need for heavy-duty ventilation systems. The solvent used as their base is less harmful to the environment and human health compared to harsher chemicals found in traditional formulations. The range also enjoys a Greenguard Gold certification which means it meets standards for low chemical emissions.
