Aqueous inkjet technology continues to grow across print markets such as commercial, packaging, textile and industrial applications, driven by the benefits in production flexibility and cost reduction for shorter run-lengths.

The drive for developments in pigment ink technology has been fuelled by its potential advantages over dye-based inks. In general, pigment inks can offer better durability and fastness. Specifically in textiles, pigment inks can offer environmental advantages too, by using less energy and water in post-processing compared to reactive dye.

The critical core component in high-performance pigment inks is the pigment dispersion, which serves as the foundation for successful ink formulation.

That’s why Fujifilm developed its own pigment dispersion technology, capable of producing…
