January 18, 2019

LONG BEACH, CA – January 18, 2019 – At the 2019 Imprinted Sportswear Show (ISS), PolyOne is launching its new range of Aquarius water-based screen printing inks as part of the Zodiac™ collection. The Zodiac brand represents a new generation of eco-conscious inks designed to provide screen printers with an array of solutions to meet a wide range of apparel brand performance needs.

Aquarius is the first new ink in the Zodiac series, and demonstrates PolyOne Specialty Inks’ commitment to meet growing demands for sustainable alternatives. Formulated to meet the environmental initiatives of apparel brands, all Zodiac inks feature no compromises to on-press performance and durability.

To develop Aquarius water-based inks, the PolyOne team combined the deep-rooted expertise and technological resources of the Wilflex, Rutland, Union Ink, Printop, and QCM ink brands. “We are thrilled to showcase the efforts of this integrated team in creating this new product,” said Tito Echiburu, general manager, PolyOne Specialty Inks. “The Zodiac portfolio of eco-conscious inks is the first of its kind, and we are excited to share the Aquariuswater-based technology range during the 2019 ISS show.”

The Zodiac Aquarius range of water-based inks includes high solids, discharge, high mesh, soft base, and special effect inks, and has been formulated to provide very soft, yet vibrant prints, while meeting stringent compliance and regulatory requirements.
