Nazdar Introduces New PowerPrint® Banner UV Screen Ink for Flexible POP

SHAWNEE, KS — Nazdar announces the introduction of PowerPrint® Banner 1900, a multipurpose UV curable screen ink formulated for use on flexible substrates for both indoor and outdoor point-of-purchase applications. Specifically developed to meet the requirements of the latest high speed, multi-color and large format presses, new PowerPrint Banner 1900 exhibits exceptional printability on a wide range of POP banner substrates, including vinyl, treated polyethylene, most static cling and pressure sensitive vinyls.

Like PowerPrint® Plus 1800 for rigid substrates and economical PowerPrint® 1600, new PowerPrint Banner 1900 exhibits fast cure speeds, high block resistance, and low odor. The new PowerPrint ink is designed to cure with a tough, resilient finish capable of up to two years of outdoor durability.

"We feel that the new PowerPrint® Banner inks complete the PowerPrint® family that started with the original PowerPrint® 1600," stated Richard Bowles, Nazdar Vice President and General Manager. "PowerPrint Banner is a world class POP ink intended primarily for printing flexible substrates, which has been designed to complement PowerPrint Plus, an equally high quality ink for rigid substrates. Together with the very competitively priced PowerPrint 1600, these multi-purpose inks deliver the complete spectrum of performance and versatility a POP printer needs."

PowerPrint® Banner 1900 inks are available in the complete range of Nazdar colors, including standard printing colors, Pantone Matching System® Base colors, and halftones for four-color process. PowerPrint® Banner 1900 inks are one-part, 100% solid UV curable screen printing inks that are press ready directly from the container and do not contain N-vinyl 1-2-pyrrolidone (V-Pyrol®).

A technical data sheet providing complete information on curing parameters and substrate range is available online at www.nazdar.com.
