UV LED Offset Printing Ink
,PVC Offset Printing Ink
UV LED offset printing ink for rotary presses delivering ultrafast drying and exceptional UV resistance.
Highfilmforming formula adheres strongly to PET PVC and PE substrates with excellent flexibility and scratch resistance.
Soybased lowodor formulation ensures safer operation and reduced environmental impact without compromising performance.
Highly concentrated pigment system enables vivid color reproduction and efficient ink usage with minimal waste.
Optimized for energyefficient UV LED curing-low heat high speed and consistent print quality on demanding applications.
1. Product overview
FORDIA UV-RS is designed for rotary and semi-rotary UV offset label presses. The series combines controlled rheology, clean transfer and rapid cure to support fine text, barcodes, vignettes and consistent color during continuous narrow-web label production.
Recommended applications: Pressure-sensitive labels, wraparound labels, pharmaceutical and cosmetic labels, promotional labels and other narrow-web work on paper or approved film label stocks.
Recommended substrates: Coated label paper, cast-coated paper, synthetic paper, top-coated or corona-treated film
Recommended equipment: Rotary and semi-rotary narrow-web UV offset label presses
Available colors: Process Yellow, Process Magenta, Process Cyan, Process Black; spot and high-opacity colors on request
2. Key performance features
- Rheology optimized for rotary and semi-rotary UV offset units.
- Fast cure and stable color at typical narrow-web production speeds.
- Sharp dots, clean reverses and good definition for fine text and barcodes.
- Low misting, controlled emulsification and reliable transfer through long runs.
- Good rub and scratch resistance after full cure and suitable substrate preparation.

4. Process-color reference
| Process color | Typical solid density* | Lightfastness (Blue Wool)* |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | 1.10-1.30 | 3-5 |
| Magenta | 1.35-1.50 | 4-5 |
| Cyan | 1.45-1.60 | 7-8 |

*Density: coated stock, Status T measurement. Lightfastness is pigment/shade dependent and indicative only.
5. Press and curing guidance
| Control point | Recommended starting guidance |
|---|---|
| Temperature | Keep ink and pressroom temperature stable; excessive heat may lower viscosity and increase misting. |
| Web/substrate | Confirm topcoat, corona level and surface cleanliness before production; avoid silicone or slip contamination. |
| Curing | Set lamp power and speed to achieve full cure at the highest ink coverage, not only in light image areas. |
| Converting | Validate adhesion, die-cutting, matrix stripping, varnishing and lamination on the actual label construction. |
| Series-specific note: The stated speed is an application starting range, not a guaranteed maximum. Available cure power, image coverage, web temperature, substrate chemistry and lamp condition determine the achievable speed. | |
6. General operating recommendations
- Condition ink to approximately 20-25°C before use and mix gently until uniform.
- Keep containers closed when not in use and protect ink from sunlight, UV lamps and strong white light.
- Do not mix with conventional oil-based ink or unapproved additives. Use only FORDIA-recommended reducers or auxiliaries.
- Keep rollers, blankets, plates and ink ducts clean. Residual wash or incompatible ink can impair cure and adhesion.
- Approve color, cure, adhesion, rub resistance and finishing performance on the actual press and substrate before a production run.
7. Cleaning
Use a wash approved for UV-curable offset inks and compatible with the press rollers, blankets and plate system. Follow the press manufacturer's procedure. Prevent wash and ink residues from entering drains or surface water.
8. Packaging, storage and shelf life
- Standard packing: 1 kg vacuum can; other pack sizes may be available by agreement.
- Store in the unopened original container at 5-25°C in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.
- Protect from heat, freezing, sunlight and all UV radiation. Rotate stock on a first-in, first-out basis.
- Shelf life applies only under the stated storage conditions. Resealed or contaminated ink should be evaluated before reuse.
