Sun Chemical has launched ElvaJet Onyx SB – a new sublimation ink for textile printing.

ElvaJet Onyx SB addresses market needs by delivering a high-performance ink that offers ease of use for wide-format textile printers.

The ink is designed to meet the market need for extended print runs between cleaning cycles, while the ink’s simple conversion process allows for immediate printing and easy start-up before or between print jobs. The advanced formula leads to enhanced print performance ensuring maximum system up-time with little intervention needed. The ink range maintains Sun Chemical’s trusted performance on a full range of transfer papers with superior edge definition and color transfer, while offering the deepest shade of black.

Pete Saunders, global director, digital businesses at Sun Chemical, said: “With the increasing range of wide-format printers available on the market, identifying the most suitable ink solution can be challenging. Sun Chemical has invested extensive R&D into reviewing customer feedback and defining a program of developments to meet the needs of the textile printing market.”

ElvaJet Onyx is certified for Eco-Passport by Oeko-Tex with no restrictions, meaning any fabric printed with Onyx SB does not need to be retested for compliance to the Oeko-Tex Class 100 standard.
