Sensient Imaging Technologies S.A. has announced the launch of the Ultra Black version of Sensient® Xennia® Amethyst™, the market-leading digital textile printing ink for cotton and viscose.
The Sensient Xennia Amethyst range of digital textile inks is designed for high performance production printing of cotton and viscose apparel and homeware textiles, and is compatible with major high production digital textile printing machines. For several years Sensient Xennia Amethyst has been the benchmark for colour performance and printing reliability in the industry. The new Ultra Black ink is a premium addition to the range designed for textile printers looking for the ultimate in rich, deep blacks while retaining the well-known advantages of Sensient Xennia Amethyst in production reliability and printhead life.
“Sensient Xennia Amethyst is the market leader for digital printing of cotton and viscose textiles,” comments Dr Simon Daplyn, Sensient Product Manager for Textile Inks, “and the new Amethyst Ultra Black extends that lead. Benchmark testing against other inks available in the industry demonstrates a clear and distinct advantage for Amethyst Ultra Black in colour depth and richness. This allows textile printers to add a new dimension in jet black design elements and stunning contrast with the bright Amethyst colours already being used by those looking for ultimate performance.”
Dr Daplyn adds: “With the recent combination of Xennia Technology and Sensient, we have a wide ranging portfolio of high performance products and, we believe, the best innovation team in the industry. Our development focus is on creative ultimate value for our customers, and we will be releasing further innovations in the next weeks and months.”
