Xaar has extended its partnership with Fujifilm Sericol with the approval of another of the company's inks for use with Xaar's world piezoelectric drop-on-demand inkjet technology.

The new UV-curable general purpose ink, Uvijet Versa, has been developed to achieve vibrant, lightfast and durable colours when used in conjunction with Xaar's XJ-126 and XJ-500 printheads.

Formulated specifically for wide-format graphic and flatbed printer applications, the Uvijet Versa ink offers adhesion and a scratch-resistant finish on a range of rigid and flexible substrates.

That makes it suitable for internal and external graphics, such as banner and signage printing, POS, vehicle and exhibition graphics, as well as backlit graphics and window displays.

Xaar ink product manager, Dr Jill Woods, commented: "This latest development further strengthens our portfolio and supports our strategy to offer global customers a consistent, open system.

Working with partners such as Fujifilm Sericol enables us to provide the industry with fully optimised inkjet products and inks to maintain excellent print performance and jetting reliability." Keith Nixon, business development manager for graphic OEM, for Fujifilm Sericol, commented: "UV-curable inks open up a wealth of new applications for inkjet printing.

Our collaboration with Xaar enables us to offer a proven product to help expand the adoption of inkjet technology and enable customers to realise its potential.".
