Transfer Additive for Water Based Flexographic Ink to Improve Color Strength

Key Benefits of Creotran for Water-Based Flexographic Inks

  • Compatible with both roll and doctor-blade methods, providing consistent ink transfer performance.

  • Highly effective at concentrations of 1% or less, helping optimize additive usage in water-based flexographic inks.

  • Enhances ink transfer and enables pigment reduction of 5–15%, helping improve printing efficiency while maintaining ink performance.

  • Provides excellent ink flow, even with challenging pigments such as carbon black.

  • Maintains ink viscosity, helping preserve the original rheology and printability of the ink.
