Xaar has approved several Fujifilm Sericol UV-curable inks for use with its inkjet printheads

Xaar has extended its approval of Fujifilm Sericol UV-curable inks for use with its piezoelectric drop-on-demand inkjet technology.

As a result, Fujifilm Sericol can now offer Xaar approved inks for the following printheads: Xaar 126, for which it offers Uvijet Versa, Uvijet Boost, Uvijet Enhance; Xaar 318, for which it offers Uvijet Rapide and Uvijet Ident White; and Xaar 500 for which it offers Uvijet Versa, Uvijet Boost and Uvijet Indent White. This is in addition to existing approval for Uvijet Versa general purpose ink for use with Xaar's 126 and 500 printheads.

The combination of Uvijet inks and Xaar's inkjet printheads is said to offer a consistent and flexible solution for display and speciality graphics printers, including wide-format indoor/ outdoor graphics, banners, POS and coding and marking.

Xaar ink product manager, Dr Jill Woods, said: "This latest development further strengthens our portfolio of approved inks and supports our strategy to offer global customers choice. Working with partners such as Fujifilm Sericol enables us to provide the industry with optimised inkjet solutions and inks to maintain print performance and jetting reliability."
