Kodak and Pigment.inc BV Europe partner for DTG inks

Eastman Kodak Company announces a partnership with Pigment.inc B.V Europe to distribute Kodak’s KODACOLOR RDTG Series Direct to Garment (DTG) inks. The KODACOLOR RDTG Series inks from Kodak were specifically developed for direct-to-fabric printing on cotton, cotton blends, and polyester fabrics. They are equally adept at printing direct to finished garments or to roll fabrics. This water-based ink system is designed to work in digital printers that employ piezo-electric printheads and operate at a very high level of nozzle performance among printheads requiring mid-to-high viscosity inks.

Although designed for use in production printing, it is suitable for high quality sampling and strike offs. Customisation of fabrics for garments, accessories, upholstery and soft signage is growing, which represents a significant business opportunity for Kodak in the DTG (direct-to-garment) and digital wide-format printing industry. KODACOLOR inks are manufactured in Rochester, NY in the USA.
