Industrial Inks and Fluids

Crucial to the performance and operation of some of our technologies, we recommend that you only use Linx-approved industrial inks and fluids in your Linx CIJ, TIJ or Large Character coding equipment. Our range includes specialist inks for a wide array of industrial coding applications, including for traceability, security, edible goods, harsh production environments and more.

Linx General Purpose Black Inks

Our range of general-purpose black inks gives outstanding performance on most common materials, ideal for most general external packaging applications.

Linx Special Adherence Inks

Designed for applications where production processes may challenge the adherence or durability of other inks. Inks for coding onto plastics and plastic films such as nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene (including untreated OPP and BOPP), and polyvinylchloride.

Food Grade Inks

Containing only edible raw materials conforming to regulations of the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or the European Union (EU).

Linx Contrasting Inks

A range of pigmented inks which deliver vivid codes, in a variety of colours, onto a range of materials including rubbers, plastics and metals. They also offer good heat tolerance, light-fastness and resistance to solvents. 

Process Specific Inks

Designed for more challenging applications where the substrate is subjected to additional processes e.g. steam sterilisation or chemical washes.

Security (UV Readable) Inks

Inks which are near invisible in normal light but fluoresce violet or red under UV light. Suitable for anti-counterfeiting and other discreet coding applications.

Coloured Inks for Pale Substrates

Dye-based inks that provide a strong contrast with a range of coloured substrates.  For better code legibility or can be used to match packaging branding for discreet coding.

Large Character Marking

Linx specialist inks for Large Character Marking  are fast drying and have a low odour making them particularly suitable for food packaging. Applications can include outer case coding, product identification, corporate branding, contact information or ingredients listings.
