V-BOND Ink CPSIA approved ink

Safety standards for children’s products have been always in the eye of the consumers; the parents. As a parent I always find myself reaching for products without BPA o any chemical that can damage or put my child at risk. Obviously, there are many brands out there that consider these aspects as a priority. Roland DGA’s recently launched the new V-BOND Ink for VersaUV LEF2 Series for UV printers which can be a great option for many businesses manufacturing children-products related.

The V-BOND Ink is compatible with any VersaUV® LEF2 Series of flatbed UV printers and it meets key safety standards that allow it to be used for printing on items designed for children, such as lunch boxes and toys. Roland DGA is a California, U.S.-based brand, a leading provider of wide-format inkjet printers, cutters, graphic arts, signage, fine art, UV, engraving, 3D, among many others. Besides delivering great color results and well-adhering to multiple kinds of substrates, this new Ink is low-VOC Nickel-free and it meets the requirements of the CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act) and California Proposition 65. Fulfilling these standards led this product to expand its opportunities for LEF2 users which can also mean entering into the toy and other variety of kids products market.

“New V-BOND Ink is safe for indoor printing and it’s formulated to bring out the best in our LEF2 series printers,” said Jay Roberts, Roland DGA’s UV printer product manager. “But, most importantly, it expands the product personalization and customization universe for end-users significantly. Because this ink meets the most rigorous safety requirements, it’s unbeatable for customizing toys and other children’s products, creating braille signage, and much more.” Besides just considering toy brands and products, V-BOND ink could be perfectly used for direct printing on school supplies, stationery, fashion, jewelry, hygiene products, electronic accessories, kitchen and culinary products, pet products, among many more. It is available for CMYK and also Glossy and White. For a wider and richer color gamut, V-BOND ink can also be combined with Roland DF’s True Rich Color 2 profiles. Using the gloss one lets users incorporate dimensional effects as well as unique textures into the prints, while the white is perfect to print vibrant graphics and dense colors on clear substrates.

So, cost-effectiveness is a big yes for them. Using V-BOND ink together with Roland DF’s LEF2 printers makes it safely to print onto plastics, paper, ceramics, acrylics, brushed metal, etc.
