Avient Corporation
A leading provider of sustainable and advanced materials solutions, Avient Corporation, has recently announced the launch of their new product, Rutland Evolve Bio Plastisol Inks. These will be utilized in the screen printing industry.
Rutland Evolve Bio Plastisol Inks are made with 56-59% bio-derived content and verified with ASTM D6866. These inks can drastically reduce the reliance on fossil fuel-based inks while also introducing more eco-friendly practices to plastisol screen printing shops.
Currently, these inks are available in white and mixing base inks. They provide an intuitive printing experience with standard screen printing equipment and processes.
Jake Ojeda, Global Marketing and Sales Director, Avient Specialty Inks, said, “At Avient Specialty Inks, we’re committed to offering innovative screen printing inks that support sustainability objectives without compromising on performance. Rutland Evolve Bio Plastisol Inks are a great example of this – they allow screen printers to incorporate bio-derived inks that maintain the on-press performance Rutland is known for.”
The innovative Rutland Evolve Bio Plastisol Inks are compatible to print with Rutland NPT C3 Pigments and can be mixed to multiple Pantone simulated shades using IMS 3.0, Avient Specialty Inks’ proprietary color formulation software. The formulas in IMS 3.0 will calculate the amount of bio-derived content associated with each Pantone color when printing with these inks.
